Everything Falls Apart is the debut studio album by the American hardcore band Hüsker Dü. It was released in January 1983 through Reflex Records.

Critical reception

In a 1983 Trouser Press review, Jon Young said, "Yeah! Hyperspeed aggression!...Buzzsaw guitars! Shouting! A disrespectful version of "Sunshine Superman"!...Not Bad!"

Reissue

The album was released on compact disc in 1993 as Everything Falls Apart and More, with bonus tracks including the band's first two singles, the full version of "Statues" lasting over eight minutes, and an unreleased track recorded in a St. Paul, Minnesota, basement called "Do You Remember?" (the English translation of "husker du" from both Danish and Norwegian). The reissue also includes extensive liner notes by Terry Katzman, co-founder of Reflex Records and soundman for the band from 1980 to 1983, as well as lyrics to a few of the songs. On June 18, 2017, a remastered version of the original album was released digitally by the Chicago reissues label The Numero Group and also included in the Savage Young Dü box set.
