Farm by Dinosaur Jr.

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

Dinosaur Jr. exists in a bubble where time and space intersect, and much like TGI McScratchy’s Goodtime Food Drinkery is perpetually stuck in the early 90’s.

Yet despite their dated grunge threads and AARP sensibilities, these Massachusetts born alternative rockers sound better than ever on their simply titled ninth studio album Farm.

J Macias avoids the many responsibilities that come with age on first single “I Want You To Know” the only way he knows how, with Face/Off inspired reconstructive surgery, “I love the place/I took your face/forgot to face it/By myself I cried.”

Over It” is tried and true alternative rock, but underneath its straight laced exterior beats the heart of an apathetic dissenter on the brink of a mid-life crisis.
