Dinosaur Jr

1984–1997, 2005–presentUSIndie/Alt. Rock

Dinosaur Jr married hardcore volume to classic-rock melody. J Mascis played guitar at punishing volume, firing off long, squalling solos, then sang over the top in a lazy, cracked drawl often compared to Neil Young, while Lou Barlow and Murph pounded away underneath.

You're Living All Over Me and Bug, with the fuzzed-out 'Freak Scene', became key records for the coming alt-rock boom. Mascis fired Barlow in 1989, freeing him to focus on Sebadoh, and led the band onto a major label for Green Mind and Where You Been. The original trio reunited in 2005 and have been recording together again since Beyond in 2007.
