It’s not a midlife return to adolescent anger: perhaps, I think, it’s more of an awareness of the role of material needs in the emotional sphere; a hateful and urgent misanthropic declaration. Jacopo Lietti choking and shouting and pushing himself like never before.

If J Mascis’s solos were a human being, they would be Mr. Clean, but black with afro hair, moving like Ibrahimovic when he celebrates with his arms wide and with Batman’s voice from the Nolan films. Dinosaur Jr. are among the few who can afford to be pretentious, possibly mannered.
