New Dinosaur Jr Album on May 1st !!!!
 
Jonathan Cohen, N.Y.
Reunited alt-rock trio Dinosaur Jr. has signed with Fat Possum, which will release in the spring unveil the band's first album with its original lineup since 1989. The 11-track "Beyond" is due May 1; it was recorded at vocalist/guitarist J. Mascis' home studio in Amherst, Mass.

"Dinosaur is something where the sound just propels us," bassist Lou Barlow told Billboard.com in October. "It's an energy source unto itself. The minute we started playing together, it was like, 'Oh, there it is.' It didn't surprise me though, since I've always believed in the quality of J.'s material."

As previously reported, a live DVD will follow later in May. Directed by Mascis' brother-in-law, Phillip Virus, the release will include live performance footage from the first half of Dinosaur Jr.'s reunion tour, including shows in New York and Boston. In February, Nike will also make available a limited edition Dinosaur Jr. skate shoe.

Barlow recently committed to a spring reunion tour with his post Dinosaur Jr.-band, Sebadoh, but according to a spokesperson, there will be additional Dinosaur Jr. live shows this year.

Here is the track list for "Beyond":


"Almost Ready"
"Crumble
"Pick Me Up"
"Back to Your Heart
"This Is All I Came To Do"
"Been There All the Time
"It's Me"
"We're Not Alone"
"I Got Lost"
"Lightning Bulb"
"What If I Knew..."

Dude, I remember telling you that this morning at like 4:30 while we were driving back from Tom's house! The dvd with us in the audience is coming out around then too, I believe. Maybe we'll be in it (if they didnt edit us out). And then we can show every Doubting Thomas that we were there. We can shove it right in their faces!

The Lung 01.24.2007 05:24 PM

I don't think he ever smoked copious amounts of green anyway, it gave him a headache or something. He was pretty straight edge compared to Lou and Murph

Rob Instigator 01.24.2007 05:27 PM

Yeah, me too. But I thought the new songs they played at ATP sounded cool, so that's a good indication. On a different note - I just found out that Kevin Shields was doing the sound for them when they played said ATP show. Strange.

Lucky you. Can't wait for May the first. Should be a lot of good albums this year, some that are expected are:
Radiohead
Pixies
Primus
Smashing Pumpkins (Though I'm sure it will suck)
SYR Boxset (Hopefully)

I'm betting that the best out of this lot is likely to be Radiohead, only because all other bands have recently reformed and sometimes comebacks can be hit or miss. Hopefully I'm wrong.
