THEY WERE ONE of the most scorching live bands of the late-'80s and early-'90s, and the reformed classic line-up of Dinosaur Jr still raise roofs, flip wigs and rearrange the molecular structure of audiences worldwide.
With guitar-snorting anthems like Freak Scene and Start Choppin they paved the way for the grunge explosion. And since their reconstitution in 2005, J Mascis, Lou Barlow and drummer Murph have only improved with age. Their new album, Farm, is up with their best.
