"Black Sheets of Rain" is the title track of Bob Mould's 1990 album, and he ran the show: he wrote it, produced it, sang it, and played the guitar, keyboards and some of the percussion. Anton Fier sits behind the drums and Tony Maimone plays bass, with Steve Boyer engineering.
It's a storm of a song, Mould's guitars coming down in thick, grey sheets while his voice strains to be heard over the downpour, a bleak, heavy weather report from a man who still believes in melody.
