A lot of people comment on which way musicians wear their headphones, but most musicians are more concerned with which side the cord is on rather than which is "left" and "right".
Man, you'd see Murph in the streets somewhere and be like "Hey that's somebody's dad, or an accountant or something," not realizing that he's a powerhouse drummer from one of the most influential indie bands of all time. Man, that guy kicks all kinds of ass.
AboveNine Everyone around SST in the mid-80’s were enamored by Dinosaur Jr. Even though Black Flag ended right before Dino made YLAOM, Henry was still on the scene. I’ve seen/heard quotes from various people who were involved with SST at the time who all said that Dino was blowing everyone’s minds at the time, especially since a lot of the SSTA people had become big time stoners so they loved their heavy, noisy, psychedelic aesthetic combined with great hooks. That’s why I love Dino Jr- I’ve always been drawn to the great bands who in some way combined catchy hooks with noise and dissonance. SSTA had some of the greatest bands ever who had that as a big part of their aesthetic, i.e. Huskers, Meat Puppets, Dino Jr, etc.
You ever love the way something sounds so much that it feels like you're crying inside? That's what I get from the sounds of Dinosaur Jr. Thank you for the beautiful musick.
Two comments: 1. I saw the Dinosaur in Boston during the first tour of the reunited lineup. Loudest show I've EVER heard--20 feet from the stage, and my friend's long hair was actually blowing backward. CAN YOU IMAGINE HOW LOUD IT WAS IN THIS STUDIO?! 2. Murph visited my old band's rehearsal space just prior to said reunion tour (long-ish story) and I got to play "Little Fury Things" with him. Even on a beater drum kit, the guy sounded like John Bonham. Murph is rock's most underrated drummer!
Probably not that loud considering J uses 3 full stacks and here he is only rocking a half stack yet any tube amp gunned is gonna sound earsplitting loud but not like 3 full stack loud
I have heard about these guys for 30 years, but this is the first time I have ever seen or heard them actually play. I had no idea that they were this good.
@@firstylasty9417 Fun fact - J was Kurt's first choice for a drummer when they went to a major label. J turned him down as he had just gotten his own major label deal.
@@brandall101 Ohhh yeah. I think I knew that waaay back in my brain somewhere, upon my voracious Nirvana readings back in the day. J's so surly, tho. That would've made for a strange band. Wonder what Chad Channing's up to these days.
To me, Dinosaur Jr is that band that has been there all this time but I had missed out on. I just recently discovered Dinosaur Jr. last month and man, they easily became one of my favorites. I'm going through some hardships but these guys help me cope, and I'm thankful. Hopefully I can catch their show later this month 🦕
I loved you KEXP, but now I absolutely adore you. Dinosaur Jr is one of my favorite bands and J Mascis one of my top guitarists. You guys are amazing, thank you so much.
The band reformed back in 2007, released 3 albums and they still play great music, they never sold their soul to some shitty commercial music...And they did the best cover ever of a song from The Cure...
I'm not trying to compete here, but I wanted to share this Lullaby's cover because is from a band from Argentina, so you guys probably didn't got the chance to listen to it, and its amazing: /watch?v=bvGnOwGdr7A
It's really cool how you see Djr play ancient tunes and they're not just going through the motions, they really feel it every time and pouring their hearts into it.
Nathan Clark joke [johk] noun something said or done to provoke laughter or cause amusement, as a witticism, a short and amusing anecdote, or a prankish act
This is one of those things that just pop up and take you back. I remember how everyone in my generation had a T-Shirt from Dinosaur Jr. You never heard their stuff on the radio. But everyone who wasn't on the other musical pole of earth knew who they were. They are almost like the Greatful Dead of my generation.
I love listening to Rollins, not for what he’s saying, but how he says it. He was very clearly reciting his written intro, but his cadence was very compelling.
If you miss out on any show during the year, you have to take the opportunity to see them play... If it's in a smaller venue especially! They are, hands down, the best live band I've ever seen.
Saw them at Amherst College with SY ... one of the loudest shows I've ever experienced. You could feel the sound coming up through the ground under your feet.
Hearing these songs again 30 years later immerses me in memories of college. Playing Music, painting outside on the porch, smoking Export A cigarettes, drinking Blue Heron Ale while doing some powerfully potent drugs with incredibly beautiful friends. All this while having exciting experiences and new fun sex with nearly every girl & guy😉 I could hold a smile with.. which was many. I find it hard to frame the levels of love I had for life back then...At 19 I gave life and everyone I knew in it my all,..I’m not always thankful I survived it,...the painful part of surviving intense years in life is looking back at all those I so deeply loved who didn’t survive. I try to live my life now in remembrance of theirs....in the hope that my doing so reflects the very best parts of the love they graced upon me.
Clearly the camera person doesn't know who J Mascis is. Couldn't find him when he started singing, couldn't find him when he started talking, didn't realize the guitar solo was coming from the guitar. "Ooh guitar solo, let's check out what the bass player is doing."
+Jeff Elliott Hey, if you couldn't tell a bass from a guitar, and you knew an insane solo was coming from someone, would you suspect the man that hasn't aged a day in 30 years and is jumping around like a maniac, or the weird old statue that somehow learned to sing? Then again, said camera person had trouble finding J when it came to the interview section, so maybe they just didn't like his face or something.
+Jeff Elliott The camera was just following its own cavalier path, no regard for the important aspects of the performance. There is no explaining such things. You can't really compare Bach to Rachmaninoff. Yes, they are both composers in the classical tradition. But Bach's music is unmistakable, even indelible; while Rachmaninoff skips around like a schizophrenic, all spontaneity, no recognizable, reusable theme. My point is that the camera person is probably a sheep following what he thought was some extended theme of the chaos of the early 90s. In trying to break new ground he just became super stupid. J Mascis rocks. You can only go so far with chaos and then it just becomes pitiful. Mascis took music of the time and put it out on the frontier, the maximum it could travel and still be relevant. The camera person was aping that instinct and came up an ape, over-extended, clumsy. Talentless-Rachmaninoff took his lens and f***ed up.
one of the most complete and pure perfect bands out there , every thing they do is mind blowing !!!!! there sound is un matched and i cant name one bad song the only other band i can think of is the lawrence arms that makes me feel this happy
Y'know, I never paid too much attention before (probably because Mascis on guitar is incredible), but after seeing this, I gotta say, holy cow! Murph can really drum, can't he?
As far as pure mastery of an instrument goes, he’s the best musician in the band. And honestly, a band is only as good as it’s drummer. Example: Pumpkins without Jimmy Chamberlain is a hollow, lifeless sounding husk of itself.
I heard them open for Primus once and they were absolutely the loudest fucking thing I've ever heard. I left the pit to purchase ear plugs then took them out for Primus. I did not see it coming.
I like how J wears safety glasses. You know sparks fly when he digs into his guitar neck and he values his safety. The crowds at their shows need safety glasses and earplugs too.
Lou's right - They didn't start playing "They Always Come" till after he was kicked out. That's why he doesn't remember playing it. It debuted live in 1991 with Mike Johnson on bass
After watching a few KEXP videos today I'm watching more and more. The sound and video is seriously awesome as always. Better than anything I've seen on youtube. I'm from the UK and really need to visit Seattle. I've never posted anything negative on websites before. But I'm 58 and have been watching live bands since 1977. I've seen pretty much seen every band I've wanted to see (In the 70s and early 80s Black Sabbath and Rush used to play in 2,000 seaters in Manchester UK). I saw Dinosaur Jr at the End of the Road festival in 2013. I left the gig nearly in tears. I've never seen a band who gave the impression that thay really didn't want to be there and play. I'm sure it was a one off but I was really looking forward to seeing them.
henry got this kind of face like he is the tough guy... and he is the fu%)ing man.... but to be honest when he is around his idols... he used to be nervous... check the stand up about iggy and ozzy...so.......
13:24 greatest guitar "lead" injection ever. Has purpose and melodic significance...and not a trace of pointless, empty wankery that pollutes virtually all other rock guitar lead breaks.
Love this so much, reminds me of moshing in my youth. Bug is one of my favourite records & Freak scene still sounds fresh to my ears, Why a'int Britain got a show like "KEXP" instead of fucking kerrang?
This is greast,,,as I expected. Just absolutely great! ....and Mascis is wearing safety glasses. Prescriptions perhaps? I had to wear those in the last ( lame- hard-dirty-nerve wrecking ) factory I worked in. But they work for him. Not that little things like this matter cuz this is Dino Jr dammit haha! ♥ Thank you so much for posting ~"Jen"
I've always thought that j mascis's voice on his slower songs, sounds somewhat similar to Neil youngs voice. Just a tad bit. He's got one of those types of voices.
those were the days. i feel lucky to grow up without the internet and cheap concerts. the 90s music scene was the best. Lollapalooza was insane!!! got my first heat exhaustion and almost passed out, yippee!!!!
I saw D Jr in 1988 (I think) in Columbia, MO at the "old" Blue Note. This was a smallish place and I was standing against the stage about a foot away from J's feet. All I remember is that they rocked the fuck out of that place and they were indeed a very loud band. I'll bet the reason the Blue Note moved to a different location was because that show damaged the structural integrity of that old building.
I met J. at a benefit for the Indian hugging saint Amma about 10 years ago he played at and an old friend of his introduced me to him. Unfriendliest cat in the world. He didn't open his mouth or extend a hand, just stared at me as if I was beneath him, without blinking. Dark, cold guy. Good guitarist.
I've booked them alot they're from my hometown, j skateboards and is always on the streets, hes got a social anxiety disorder, he doesn't speak to anyone ,my good friend has recorded all their comeback albums since reuniting Murphy, Barlow and J 2gether. J has been that way his whole life I'm sorry you feel that way about yourself not to have confidence in your own self.
Just because your famous in an indie rock sense doesn't mean you don't get depressed or have issues you may wanna think of others and remember artists and geniuses are a step from insanity
@@pineapplecircus thanks for explaining, Mark. I'm still a supporter of J and I just bought his new album last week. I've been a supporter of Amma, the Indian guru J and I follow, since the mid-1990's and I've been a listener of Dinosaur Jr. since 1990, so forgive me if I came off as too critical or harsh. It was just disappointing at the time to have liked J's music and what he's doing and to feel snubbed by him in person at a benefit for an Indian saint who espouses love and hugs and warmth. I wish meeting J had gone differently. I'm still committed to Amma's teachings, as J is, and I understand more from what you replied here, so thank you. I do continue to support J and Dinosaur and hope to catch him and Lou & Murph on tour at some point. Later this year hopefully... xo ❤
@@greendragon9919 oh man thanks for that ,I feel bad for snapping more than explaining, personally I think it's possible Asperger Syndrome or "on the spectrum " stuff as they say but he seems as though he makes himself happy and ya know theres thoughts running around as fast as he shreds cuz most if his lyrics are pretty deep. Plus hea been playing it seems, since he could pick up a guitar and has a very super o.c.d. organized board and speaker set up that is set up exactly the same, always ,and it takes him awhile to get that all set up just so. For me I appreciate the quirks and oddities more, theres only very few songs that I actually love 1 is the ,u believe, 1st hit single from their 1st 7" , In Noho hes been playing with Eric Gaffney, plus all the local Northampton,Mass musicians ,some that didn't get famous but had played w him as teens ,1 in particular whose a bartender and successful in business but is one of the best instrumental jazz guitarists most antibes ever heard and funny as friends we both loathe 1 another's tastes musically lol but it seems he played w the best at guitar, growing up, in any style as long as they were considered a great player no matter the style which seems hes more comfy "communicating ' thru his instrument than with vocabulary and love or like or hate his talent theirs no denying ya know its him after 2-5 notes. And he loves purple ,has custom purple and silver to actually, hi tops
The way Lou plays the bass is just black magic sorcery! Such and underated bassist
A lot of people comment on which way musicians wear their headphones, but most musicians are more concerned with which side the cord is on rather than which is "left" and "right".

Music is Not about what you look like.
Rock drummers tend to have that aura. Steve Flynn from Atheist is sorta like that too.
I don't think i've ever seen Henry smile and laugh so much. It's really nice.
Henry really respects Dinosaur Jr., it's fun to see him get a little flustered by the fact.

You should listen to his podcast (also available on RUclips); he laughs all the time.
Just Like Heaven is a PERFECT song yet somehow D Jr manages to make it even better. Incredible cover.
So nice to hear Lou and J sing together. And that Wah wah pedal on the Just Like Heaven intro.

I didn't get into them until my 30s, but they were the band I'd been looking for since I was 15.
They aren’t this good.. they’re usually even better. This was a decent performance for them but not anything great.
So glad these guys hooked back up.
One of those iconic bands that almost every decent musician of the 90s was/is influenced by these guys.
in my opinion Lou Barlow has always been one of the most unique and exciting bass players..
Great band. Always listen to them while Im skating
Jay makes my jaw drop every time I hear him play . And he makes me laugh my ass off every time I hear him interviewed.

This is outrageous. A lifetime favorite band, but I hadn't seen this. I never understood just how good they are to this degree before.
I remember hearing this when it first came out on a college radio station. Been a fan ever since. J created grunge before Nirvana.
Kurt wanted him to join Nirvana. Kurt definitely was open about his influences.
Nirvana did not create grunge.
Little fury things always makes me feel some way I can’t even describe. They still play it just as well live as on the album.
Freak Scene might be me all time favorite song from Dino Jr., maybe of all bands. That sounded awesome.
unsurpassable unique guitar player and the band is simply one of that part of the music history which will never be forgotten.
Henry’s face after every question is like “Oh man, I hope they don’t hate this question”.

@@GRedit1000 ok but i appreciate my hearing
Beautiful !!
Nothing gives me a more acute headache like dinosaur jr
I got my hearing back 2 days after DJ's gig in Hong Kong! caused of the powerful and distorting guitars ! wow it was so happening!
Was thinking about Hank’s “men of action” line just the other day, and happened upon it tonight. Never gets old. Always gets a good laugh.
I saw D Jr in 1988 (I think) in Columbia, MO at the "old" Blue Note. This was a smallish place and I was standing against the stage about a foot away from J's feet. All I remember is that they rocked the fuck out of that place and they were indeed a very loud band. I'll bet the reason the Blue Note moved to a different location was because that show damaged the structural integrity of that old building.
Awesome noise!
I've seen them live. They're deafening loud!
this band is a living myth
I feel like J is half asleep 24/7
scott tudhope that's called being high
Djr is straight edge. That said, their music pairs pretty well with a bowl
He's heavy into meditation. Just zen'd out all the time.
@@bridgetwatts3680 Dinosaur Jr is not straight edge, only J is.
He's super introvert too
Most likable band in the world.
J and Lou have such a honey voices!
Just stumbled on this and I’m happy I did!
I met J. at a benefit for the Indian hugging saint Amma about 10 years ago he played at and an old friend of his introduced me to him. Unfriendliest cat in the world. He didn't open his mouth or extend a hand, just stared at me as if I was beneath him, without blinking. Dark, cold guy. Good guitarist.
I've booked them alot they're from my hometown, j skateboards and is always on the streets, hes got a social anxiety disorder, he doesn't speak to anyone ,my good friend has recorded all their comeback albums since reuniting Murphy, Barlow and J 2gether. J has been that way his whole life I'm sorry you feel that way about yourself not to have confidence in your own self.
Just because your famous in an indie rock sense doesn't mean you don't get depressed or have issues you may wanna think of others and remember artists and geniuses are a step from insanity
@@pineapplecircus thanks for explaining, Mark. I'm still a supporter of J and I just bought his new album last week. I've been a supporter of Amma, the Indian guru J and I follow, since the mid-1990's and I've been a listener of Dinosaur Jr. since 1990, so forgive me if I came off as too critical or harsh. It was just disappointing at the time to have liked J's music and what he's doing and to feel snubbed by him in person at a benefit for an Indian saint who espouses love and hugs and warmth. I wish meeting J had gone differently. I'm still committed to Amma's teachings, as J is, and I understand more from what you replied here, so thank you. I do continue to support J and Dinosaur and hope to catch him and Lou & Murph on tour at some point. Later this year hopefully... xo ❤
@@greendragon9919 oh man thanks for that ,I feel bad for snapping more than explaining, personally I think it's possible Asperger Syndrome or "on the spectrum " stuff as they say but he seems as though he makes himself happy and ya know theres thoughts running around as fast as he shreds cuz most if his lyrics are pretty deep. Plus hea been playing it seems, since he could pick up a guitar and has a very super o.c.d. organized board and speaker set up that is set up exactly the same, always ,and it takes him awhile to get that all set up just so. For me I appreciate the quirks and oddities more, theres only very few songs that I actually love 1 is the ,u believe, 1st hit single from their 1st 7" , In Noho hes been playing with Eric Gaffney, plus all the local Northampton,Mass musicians ,some that didn't get famous but had played w him as teens ,1 in particular whose a bartender and successful in business but is one of the best instrumental jazz guitarists most antibes ever heard and funny as friends we both loathe 1 another's tastes musically lol but it seems he played w the best at guitar, growing up, in any style as long as they were considered a great player no matter the style which seems hes more comfy "communicating ' thru his instrument than with vocabulary and love or like or hate his talent theirs no denying ya know its him after 2-5 notes. And he loves purple ,has custom purple and silver to actually, hi tops
Takes me back to my tripping days!
Damn, Henry and Dino Jr - the perfect combination... now make them tour together
Fucking underrated band!
who ever rated them "under"?
I mean WHO?
NO ONE!
Berlin was great guys. You rock!
It's good to see Daniel Wormald "Pryce" from Better Call Saul has a cool gig on KEXP..
First thing that popped into my mind when they started playing was Ed Templeton
lol
Vallely's scene in Speak Freaks with Freak Scene playing. Still on of my favs.
loyal underling of Templeton
kracked
best band ever
I’m finally realizing that Henry Rollins isn’t necessarily awkward, he’s just always been sober
One of the key members of the straight edge movement in greater DC in the 80s
