Mould and Hart produced solo albums and formed the bands Sugar and Nova Mob, respectively. Mould also joined Richard Morel in the band Blowoff. In 2005, after retiring from playing shows with an electric band in 1998, Mould returned to touring with a band and included Hüsker Dü and Sugar songs in his sets. His album Silver Age , which came soon after the reissue of Sugar’s two full-length albums in 2012, was widely acclaimed as a return to form. Mould’s backing band features Jason Narducy ( Verbow , Split Single) and Jon Wurster ( Superchunk , the Mountain Goats ) on bass and drums, respectively. Norton formed the band Grey Area, played with Shotgun Rationale, and became a chef . He and his ex-wife Sarah owned a restaurant in Red Wing, Minnesota , called The Nortons’, until 2010. In addition to his restaurant duties, in 2006 Norton returned to music as the bassist for the Minnesota-based band the Gang Font, featuring Interloper. The group released an eponymous album in 2007. In 2016, Norton also joined the Wisconsin indie rock band Porcupine, actively performing and recording with them.
