how about mascists?

I mean its so obvious. We all like punishing painful distortion that dino jr produces otherwise we wouldn’t be here.

[dazedcola]

wow this is great news ! Getting to see one of my favorite bands live again. I love living near boston.

[dazedcola]

Man that is is seriously fucked up. Whatever happened to respecting the artists. I mean no on would dare steal hendrix’s gear.

J has very elusive and funny answers in interviews.

What gives you inspiration for all those incredible
solos on Where You Been?
J : Earthquakes.

was "goin home" diificult to write. It is one of my favorites,
and seems more intricate(at least the guitar does) than many other songs of
yours
J: I can’t remember

I’m a beginner on guitar. What are some methods to
become a GREAT guitarist?
J: No matter what happens, never stop soloing.

Jay Mascis- you are a great lyricist! How do you get
inspired?
J: From eating mangos.I am now addicted to mangos.

IT seems like a lot of dino jr album titles have a weird phrase kind of thing (You’re Living All Over Me, Where you Been, Whatever’s Cool With Me), so how about calling the record "What’d You Expect ".

[dazedcola]

Yea You In Reverse is a great record, it has some mind blowing solos. I think there’s definetly some similarities between built to spill and dinosaur jr. Doug Martsch covered "tarpit" when he did a solo tour. Didn’t doug and J do a few joint shows together, anyone have any audio form that ?

[dazedcola]

cool.i’m gonna go see it.

I was kinda upset for a little while when it came out because it appeared that it would never reach my area but im glad it will now.

That is too cool. I never realized that J was in that episode before. Dinosaur Jr need to be the musical guest on SNL.

yea right, they’re way overdue. They’d wipe the floor with all the other sub-par musical guests that have been on recently

[dazedcola]

did any of you hear that thruston moore, kim gordon and their daughter coco are gonna be on the season finale of that show on may 9. They’re gonna perform an acoustic version of one of the songs off the new record.

What is the setlist for that Iron Horse show?
Me and Jeremiah worked out track names for a couple, but with both of us not having the Witch CD handy right now, it’s kind of hard.
01 Seer
02 ?
03 Rip Van Winkle
04 Soul of Fire
05 ?
06 ?
07 ?

I’ll finish it up in the AM – got it on a text doc on my work craptop

sounds very good btw

well i know they ended with black saint because of that drum breakdown in the song is really distinctive.

[dazedcola]

yea its a great record, i bet a lot of dinosaur jr fans would like this record. It’s like stoner rock without any boring parts.

[dazedcola]

I saw them at the Iron Horse last Saturday and they were really good. They have this thick (but not ear-bleeding) kind of sound with monster riffs, brain scrambling solos and of course Mascis kicking ass behind the drumkit. The songs had really good sabbath like heavy swaying melodies and then really insane energetic schizoid parts.At the end of the show people were yelling encore but the lead singer goes "sorry thats all the songs we’ve released right now". They’re a great live band and anyone that has the chance to see them should go.

Q You’ve just announced a US tour in the northern spring, and a DVD. What’s the scale of the tour (in terms of venues) and what can we expect on the DVD?

It’s a three-week tour. Dvd is of a live show probably from Cambridge, Massachusetts. Should be good some cool camera angles and a lackluster
Boston crowd makes us work harder.

fuck yea, i was at that gig, i might actually be on the dvd.

[dazedcola]

man, im so bowled over that dinosaur jr is recording a new album wiht the original line-up. Im really curious to see if there will be any collaborations between J and Lou on the new record.It’d be great to see some songs with imput from the both of them (and murph of course) or just some lou and j songs filtered thru dino’s unique sound.

The ecstatic peace homepage has put up some quicktime video clips of some of the performances at the flywheel like Sonic Youth, JEFF(who were surprisingly good), Sunburned Hand of the Thurston and Mascis Markers.
