Guest 277: 930-933 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Very life affirming. Makes me want to get high on amphetamines and get drunk though, so sometimes it leads to pretty heavy hangovers but then I just listen to the track again and am ready for anything.

mosca Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 the bassline to 'in a jar' is pretty life affirming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alzado Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 It's really kind of hard to believe just how great both Beyond and the new album, Farm, are. They're fucking great. They're not just great, they're among the band's best albums. That's not the way it's supposed to be. Legendary bands release mediocre albums late in their careers that come close to compromising their legacy. They release albums that die-hards claim are great because they can't let go and everybody else listens once and never again. But these two albums are different. They're fantastic. The new one is even better than Beyond, which I didn't think would be possible. If they had released Farm early in their career, they might have been a bigger band. Great albums, either way.

Alzado Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 they were playing Out There, Feel The Pain and The Wagon on the tour in support of Beyond. Don't know what they're doing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenGOD Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I think my favorite Mascis solo is actually from a track he did with fIREHOSE. Blaze. (unfortunately Sony decided to disable embedding by request so go give it some eyes here) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbtWThJ1RqI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perunamuusi Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 the solo i saw him pull off in the middle of KEEP THE GLOVE one time was absolutely staggering best guitar palyer since the jimi hendrix also: thumb an what Mo said about tarpit... YLAOM is their finest album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan C Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Nothing but love for Dinosaur Jr, and I agree with the new album, I was shocked by how good it was, I wasn't expecting it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noise Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 i got an album by them, something with "living", can't remember the name.. anyway, it didn't really gel with me at all, sounded like a bad indie grunge/sabbath worship band at the time... i'm thinking of giving them a second/third/whatever chance, but... is it worth it?

Alzado Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 best guitar palyer since the jimi hendrix so true. and it's more than just being good. he's one of a few guitar players that has a distinctive sound. I would recognize his tone and his playing instantly even in songs I've never heard before. He guested on a few songs on the Lemonheads' new album that was out a few years back. I picked it up without knowing. After listening to the first few tracks, I thought to myself damn, someone is copping J Mascis' sound. Turns out, it was him. I can't really put my finger on what separates it. I guess he's just that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 277: 930-933 Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I'm ashamed to admit I've only got a physical copy of Beyond, but I'll make a point of it to check out their older stuff and their latest album. :heart: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
