Dinosaur Jr.

In March 2010, Dinosaur Jr. was riding high on the resurgence of their popularity, fueled by their 2009 album "Farm," which was well-received by fans and critics alike. This live recording of "Freak Scene" showcases the band's signature sound, blending sludgy guitar riffs with heartfelt melodies that embody the essence of alternative rock. It’s interesting to note that, despite lineup changes over the years, the founding trio—J Mascis, Lou Barlow, and Murph—reunited for this album, capturing that raw, gritty energy that first made them a household name. Performing at the Metro Theatre in Sydney, the band delivers a nostalgic yet fresh rendition that likely echoed the exuberance of their earlier days. This live show not only highlights their musical evolution but also serves as a reminder of their enduring influence on the alternative scene.
