As the co-songwriter of Husker Du, Hart's songs (such as "The Girl Who Lives on Heaven Hill" and "Turn On The News") received praise from critics and contemporaries. Hart's vocal style, in contrast to that of Husker Du-bandmate Bob Mould, was a more measured and melodical delivery. His choice of lyrical themes, which included teenage alienation in "Standing By The Sea" and the depiction of a murder in "Diane," helped to expand the subject matter of hardcore punk.
