Editorial Reviews

Fronted by singer-songwriter/guitarist J Mascis, Dinosaur Jr. formed in Massachusetts in 1984. Their emergence was a musical shot heard round the world as Mascis and company put the heroics of lead guitar back into the forefront of the indie rock realm-amazingly, it was a revolutionary idea at the time. Post-punk and pre-grunge, they were an intense force to be reckoned with, and when the band signed to Sire in '91, Mascis' shreddingly unique alt-rock sound was cranked up for vast new audiences of eardrums. These expanded remasters of Dinosaur Jr's first two major label albums spotlight one of the most distinctive and influential artists of the '90s in prime form.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's hard to pick a favorite, but..., February 13, 2011

I had heard tracks from Green Mind first, but Where You Been was the first DJ album I really absorbed and loved. I mean...you know ten seconds in it's gonna rock. Some of the songs are rather chill though. "Out There" is a great opener, and I might like "Start Choppin'" even more. I'm sure some fans of the early stuff don't dig this album as much, but now that DJ is active again, this could really be considered the mid-years. Another all-time fave of mine is "Goin' Home". You'll easily enjoy this album if you like Without A Sound, Green Mind or Hand It Over. I have the vinyl. It's almost frame-worthy.

J is about as free and creative a guitarist as you could want to hear. I'm glad he's currently getting very active again. I wish J would do an album of all hard-rockers like Out There, which is explosive !!!

This album is good, not as good as other dinosaur jrs albums, but has many great songs. To me Dinosaur Jr is one of the greatest rock bands, they naver sold out to "commercial stuff' they stay true to their music and keep the same pace everytime. I love it
