Yes. 2009 in Fort Collins (The Aggie) was staggeringly loud. I had good ear plugs, and man did I need it. I love this band. Love them. However, the volume was ridiculous. I saw J solo and acoustic and it was the loudest one man/one guitar show I've ever heard -- right at the edge of sanity.
Just the best line ever....."sometimes I don't thrill you, sometimes I think I'll kill you but just don't let me fuck up will you, cause when I need a friend, it's still you".
Yeah, outstanding. Every lyric in this song is dope tho: "The weirdness flows between us Anyone can tell to see us Freak scene just can't believe us Why can't it just be cool and free us?"
J Mascis is the Jimi Hendrix of his generation. Thx for all these great albums and keep on rocking man. I discovered D Jr in skate videos some 28 years ago and I havent stopped listenning ever since.
I got the official video of this song that doesn't feature the head shave part... just band in garden playing It's on an old VHS tape... I doubt youtube would let me put it up
This song remind me of Substereo the music programme you must hear before you fokin die every wednesday eight to nine pm at oz fm Bandung, West Java, Indonesia, South East Asia circa 2003-2006 hosted by Alvin Harapan Jaya/Teenage Death Star and Sogi Indra Duadja also Mang Dodi Dido The Real Enemy

I love how this song is basically a love/hate letter from one band member to another. The message: no matter how much you may think you've grown to hate an old friend, most of the time the relationship is worth salvaging... especially if you create awesome music like this together.
The fact that this band had written and recorded this song, plus shooting this acid trip of a music video, completely drug and alcohol free astonishes me. I'm sober and will continue to be, but my mind cannot be this fucked while nothing is going through me. By I mean "fucked", I mean disturbingly fascinating and maybe orgasmic. Also the guy that's got his head shaven looks like a cross between Germs' guitarist, Pat Smear and "X Head" from The Decline of Western Civilization.
@@billyshakespeare488 I did prove you wrong, because although you said that not ALL kids are like that in your reply, in your original comment you said that all kids are like that. As a kid I know that's not true, so as a kid I say go fuckyourself.
@@billyshakespeare488 And most people were into underground music when you were in school (I'm 24 so a similar time)? I would imagine not since it's underground. You probably had your own circle of friends. Is there a reason to think it would be different today?
Dinosaur Jr were constantly being raved about in the British music press (Melody Maker, NME) back in the 80s.That's where I got to hear about them and bought their first SST album, You're Living All Over Me, on the strength of the reviews they were getting. I really liked that album and definitely think it's their best.
I swear I have a picture of me wearing my purple Dino Jr shirt and also a pair of fake eye glasses with the printed eyes on them from like 25 years ago, and didn’t see a connection until just now
@ Florida Man. Funny you say that. I bought Bug and Reed's New York on cassette at the same time. They were released within a few months of each other. I'm also from Florida.

We saw them live for the 1st time 10/2/22 Columbus, OH. I feel like it was the best live rock show I've ever been to, so loud and awesome energy. I brought my wife and 11 y.o. daughter to her first concert ever so that's a forever memory for us. Hopefully I'll get to see them play live again and hear and learn more of their music as well. They've definitely earned a spot in my favorite bands of all time.
It may very well be from one band member to another. However it may be a statement to a girl (seen enough to eye you but I've seen too much to try you) maybe he's talking to a girl who he wanted to talk to but was too afraid to approach.

It's a hard toss up between J Mascus, Cheeta Crome and Greg Ginn who influenced my guitar style. I smelled gas. I had to run and turn the stove off. That was about to be some bad news. Damnit Mom. Have you no sense of self preservation?

I saw them do a fuckin awesome set in the rain a couple of weeks ago
I saw them at Portsmouth Polytechnic in 1989 - so loud it sent me into a trance!
One of the most perfect rock songs of all time.
Yup...after indie before grunge...perfect mix

Are you sure

Alternative music before the term 'Alternative Music' became a genre.
Alternative music was a genre in the 70s.
🤦♂️🤦♂️
It was called "college rock" in the 80s

Really, I think they are a great band all around. Love the drummer. He is a monster wearing human skin
it definitely an acquired taste but its grown on me lol
I much prefer him as a guitarist, that being said he is a good songwriter, him and Barlow, Sebadoh has some amazing songs as well
Really? I think it's nonchalant in the best way possible.
