not too surprisingly, indie rock’s elder statesmen Dinosaur Jr. are returning tonight to Los Angeles after two sold out shows at the Troubadour in June. they’re playing the House of Blues Sunset Strip, and the place will be lucky to still be standing after J., Lou and Murph finish plugging in those purple amps. i’ve said it before, and i’ll say it again. loudest fucking band in America. (My Bloody Valentine doesn’t count, they’re from the Old Country.)
i imagine at this point that the inside of J. Mascis’ ears sounds like the scene in Fight Club when Ed Norton gets done shooting a bullet through his mouth and there’s nothing but ringing while people mouth things to him and look worried…
not too surprisingly, indie rock’s elder statesmen Dinosaur Jr. are returning to Los Angeles after two sold out shows at the Troubadour last month. they’re playing November 5th at the House of Blues Sunset Strip, and the place will be lucky to still be standing after J., Lou and Murph finish plugging in those purple amps. said it before, and i’ll say it again… loudest fucking band in America. (My Bloody Valentine doesn’t count, they’re from the Old Country.)
i imagine at this point that the inside of J. Mascis’ head sounds like the scene in Fight Club when Ed Norton gets done shooting a bullet through his mouth and there’s nothing but ringing while people mouth things to him and look worried because there is blood coming out of his ear…
put in your earplugs, West Hollywood, and tape the windows to keep them from shattering. Dinosaur Jr. is bringing their wall of sound to the Troubadour tonight (sold out with Earthless) and tomorrow night (some tickets still available with Crystal Antlers). they’re (just barely) the second loudest band i have ever seen. (my ears are still bleeding from last year, My Bloody Valentine. you can expect a letter from my lawyers…)
yes, these are legitimate Dinosaur Jr. Nike dunks... and you better not fcuking bid me up on eBay...
