Dino Jr is the sound of a Void or Germs record left in Neil Young's van during a heavy hotboxing sesh

In other words, nuthin like mbv

yeah Dino Jr is not MBV-like at all except for guitar effects pedals maybe

You're Living All Over Me: mix of very tuneful classic rock with extreme guitar noise. Also, Mascis's voice was very pleasant.

Not that different in concept from Husker Du, actually.

no dinosaur jr are both literally and metaphorically the sound of glenn branca and glen matlock frotting underneath a dying extractor fan in a rural new hampshire restroom during a snowstorm on an unspecified date between november 1982 and february 1983 and j mascis has confirmed this

other way around really. dinosaur had a huge impact on the underground '85 - '87, hitching the whiny melodicism of the cure to the shambolic guitar splatter of neil young w/ crazy horse with a louder-than-thou live approach. they laid a path forward for sonic youth, who began to ape them on sister and daydream nation.
and when I heard isn't anything, it was pretty clear this new, improved MBV would not have existed without dinosaur and SY as precursors. the blurry fuzz of "feed me with your kiss" is not that far removed from what's on you're living all over me, even down to shields/mascis' narcoleptic personas. and it was such a common observation in the press that shields was a bit fed up with the comparison when I interviewed him in '89.
― vincent black shadow giallo (Edward III), Tuesday, 25 September 2012 20:18 (thirteen years ago)
he was probably fed up with the comparison because he was ripping off bands that weren't dinosaur jr
― A.R.R.Y. Kane (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 25 September 2012 20:21 (thirteen years ago)
shields/mascis' narcoleptic personas
the noisy overcranked feedback is shared between but ithink this is a big difference, mascis = stoned, genial, proto-slacker drawl, shields = dull, blissed out, exhausted lament

― A.R.R.Y. Kane (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 25 September 2012 20:29 (thirteen years ago)
are you sure? very likely on daydream nation but i don't really hear it and would never have thought it of sister.

― nostormo, Tuesday, 25 September 2012 20:30 (thirteen years ago)
i defer to those who were there at the time, but i kinda imagine sonic youth were au fait with 'shambolic guitar splatter' rather before they had heard the outcome of dinosaur jr listening to neil young's back catalogue

perhaps it is just terrible sound quality but I feel like Dino Jr is really intent on hiding the bass while Husker and MBV do a lot to isolate it and bring it to the forefront
also the drums on Husker/MBV sound much, much crisper
in summation, "Ocean Size" pwns

Ranking-wise this might be one of the weirdest but awesome polls I've seen in here. Happy to see the Wipers and Einsturzende Neubauten in the top 100 so far.

yeah ok maybe not sister
thought there was some proto-dinosaur stuff on there but looking at the track list, no
xp to stirmonster
― vincent black shadow giallo (Edward III), Tuesday, 25 September 2012 20:34 (thirteen years ago)
and that possibly explains why i jumped off at daydream nation.
