Born in Malone New York Mould lived in several places including the Minneapolis-St. Paul area where he then attended Macalester College. There he formed Hüsker Dü in the late 1970s with drummer/singer Grant Hart and bass guitarist Greg Norton.
Formed in 1979 Hüsker Dü first gained notice as a punk rock group with a series of recordings on the independent label SST Records. In 1986 they signed with the major record label Warner Bros. Records but found only modest commercial success. However they were later often cited as one of the key influences on 1990s alternative rock including bands such as Nirvana and the Pixies.
In the late 1980s Hüsker Dü broke up acrimoniously amid members' drug abuse personal problems disputes over songwriting credits musical direction and the suicide of the band's manager David Savoy.
