Our Take

Hello there, music lovers! Today we're diving into the latest offering from the legendary Dinosaur Jr. with their self-titled album "Dinosaur." If you're looking for a trip down memory lane with a band that never seems to age, then look no further.

From the moment you hit play, you're greeted with that signature Dinosaur Jr. sound - fuzzy guitars, slacker vocals, and a healthy dose of angst. It's like slipping on your favourite pair of ripped jeans and blasting your old mixtape from high school.

Tracks like "Gotta Know" and "Walking the Cow" showcase the band's ability to effortlessly blend their grunge roots with a touch of psychedelia. J Mascis's guitar solos still hit that sweet spot between melodic and chaotic, leaving you craving more with each riff.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on this album. Songs like "Not the Same" and "Rattling" delve into darker themes, serving as a reminder that Dinosaur Jr. isn't afraid to tackle the heavier side of life.

Overall, "Dinosaur" is a solid addition to the band's already impressive discography. While some may argue that they're sticking to their tried and true formula, we say if it ain't broke, don't fix it. So grab your flannel shirt, crank up the volume, and let Dinosaur Jr. take you on a nostalgic ride through the past. Cheers to another solid release from these indie rock veterans.

About the artist

Dinosaur Jr.

Dinosaur Jr. are the grandfather's of lo-fi indie rock, the kind of band that makes you want to grab a beat-up guitar and strum along in your garage. Hailing from Amherst, Massachusetts, this trio consists of J Mascis on vocals and guitar, Lou Barlow on bass and Murph on drums. With their debut album "Dinosaur" hitting the scene in 1985, these guys have been rocking out for over three decades. Their sound is a unique blend of punk, grunge and classic rock, with Mascis's fuzzy guitar licks and laid-back vocals stealing the show. But what really sets Dinosaur Jr. apart is their live performances. Mascis may look like a sleepy-eyed professor, but when he hits the stage, he transforms into a guitar god, shredding away with reckless abandon. Barlow and Murph provide the perfect rhythm section to keep the energy going, creating a sonic whirlwind that will leave you wanting more. Their 2016 album "Give a Glimpse of What Yer Not" proved that Dinosaur Jr. still have plenty of gas left in the tank. Tracks like "Goin Down" and "Tiny" are prime examples of their signature sound, with anthemic choruses and killer guitar solos that will have you headbanging in no time. So if you're a fan of raw, unapologetic rock 'n' roll, Dinosaur Jr. are a band you need to check out. They may be old-timers in the scene, but these guys can still teach the youngsters a thing or two about how to rock out with style.
