Dinosaur Jr. - Goin Down (Official Video)

 

 

The last time Dinosaur Jr played together on New Zealand turf was at Auckland's Powerstation in 2013 to a sold out crowd, ahead of J Mascis and Lou Barlow's recent solo tours in the last year.

Now four albums in since the band's reform in 2005, Dinosaur Jr show no sign of slowing down the wagon. The three-piece's new album Give A Glimpse of What Yer Not, (which features the current singles Tiny and Goin Down) has generated praise from far and wide, affirming the staying power of Dinosaur Jr and the songs of J Mascis:

“This new one sounds as thrillingly noisy, focused and as concisely realised as anything in that vast back-catalogue… Dinosaur Jr is our New Favourite Band. Again,”
Graham Reid, Elsewhere

"If you ever begin to think your best days are behind you, buy one of Dinosaur Jr.'s last three records and get inspired." - Double J, Australia

"After more than 30 years, it’s thrilling that Dinosaur Jr. are continuing to hit the festival circuit and making more fans each go-around." - Consequence of Sound

"an extravagantly brutish soup of sound" - The Guardian (4/5 stars)
