I haven't listened to J. Mascis in a long time, mainly because I was underwhelmed by some of his recent records, but I decided to give this new album a listen. To my surprise, I loved the whole thing.
Just thinking about my youth. Spent listening to Dinosaur Jr as loud as i could stand it. Late 80's, early 90's thinking that Sub Pop was the center of the universe. To this day, Sub Pop seems untouchable. Theyve always been a level that I wanted to be at. When i squinted real hard, my Bucket City scene looked like that scene. But i knew it wasnt, and no other would ever be. Anyway, this song makes me so happy. And it takes me way back to those days. I may start my days out with it. And so should you.
