Beyond is one of the bests album of this decade...is so powerfull and still has some great great melodies...the best thing is that is a 100% dino album....you have the music and the feel there ... j mascis work continues to impress me....yeah the maggot brain solo is just art.
Nice new article in spin talks about the new album coming out this june and a bit about the tour. Lou mentions it has a bit of a more "old school" feel then beyond did.
"It has an urgency," Barlow says of the album, expected in June. "Right away I knew it was superior to Beyond."
How did they restore the original vibe? Barlow points to the tight deadline for the forthcoming effort: The group met in Mascis' home studio in Massachusetts in November and immediately had a February target for completion. This constraint, says Barlow, instilled a collective respect for their time together -- something they lacked when recording Beyond.
"Beyond was the first time I'd actually seen us throw stuff out [of the sessions]," Barlow says. But with the recent sessions the band didn't dilly-dally; they recorded and refined all, and only, their 14 demos, including two covers -- "Houses," by '70s folk rocker Elise, and a Zombies song called "Whenever You're Ready."
We'll see i was very impressed with Beyond if the new album is better then that is great news!

Can't fucking wait. In the last year or two, these guys have been steadily climbing my list of favourite artists. If there's a Canada date this SUmmer (specifically Toronto), I might consider a road trip.
friend saw them play a mini acoustic set at a record store in toronto last night. i was jealous. guess the drummer got held up at the border though so the other guy whats his name murph? played drums.
On December 1, Dinosaur Jr. will celebrate the 25th anniversary of “You’re Living All Over Me” at Terminal 5 in New York City. The band will play the album in its entirety followed by a second set spanning their catalog with very special musical guests joining them onstage. We’re excited to announce that Dale Crover of (the) Melvins will join the band for a song or two. Already announced are Johnny Marr, Kim Gordon and Al Cisneros, and more special guests will be announced.
