Dinosaur Jr. Offer Fallon "Pieces"

thumbnail icon: Dinosaur Jr. Offer Fallon "Pieces"

"Pieces" is one of the more straight-up old-school Dinosaur-style rockers on the band's second post-comeback album Farm. "Old school" in the sense that it's one of those late-period tracks that, in a very good way, conjures "Freak Scene" (in the opening) and a handful of other older anthems before it's through. For their showing on Fallon last night the guys don't look quite as spry as they did in the "Over It" video, but you can't complain too much about the performance or sound. I say this knowing you will.

Farm is out via Jagjawugar.

It's more like

Red Sox:Yankees::Dinosaur Jr:Sonic Youth/Ramones/Talking Heads/Velvet Underground

Take your pick, you're outgunned.

Saw them at MHOW last night, and not only did they all keep these same outfits on later that day, the melted my face straight off.

Screaming Females were great too.

This is totally not great if you don't live in the US. Someone link me a video that works in Australia!
