Everything Falls Apart is the debut studio album by Hüsker Dü released in January 1983 by Reflex Records.
The album was released on compact disc in 1993 as Everything Falls Apart and More, with bonus tracks including the band's first 2 singles, the full version of "Statues" lasting over 8 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, cofounder of Reflex Records and soundman for the band from 1980 to 1983, as well as lyrics to a few of the songs.
