Dinosaur Jr.

In June 1991, when Dinosaur Jr. performed 'They Always Come' live at the Hollywood Palladium, they were riding the wave of their critically acclaimed album, 'Green Mind,' which had been released earlier that same year. This album marked a significant moment for the band, as it was one of their first recordings after the departure of bassist Lou Barlow. Interestingly, despite this shakeup, Dinosaur Jr. managed to maintain their signature sound, blending fuzzed-out guitars with raw, emotional lyrics. The performance at the Palladium illustrates the band’s connection with their audience during that era, showcasing their high-energy style and J Mascis's captivating guitar work. It's intriguing to think about how pivotal this period was for Dinosaur Jr., as they were transitioning and solidifying their identity in the grunge and alternative rock scene.
