DINOSAUR JR. + YUCK performing LIVE
Dinosaur Jr., along with their peers the Pixies, were highly influential in the alternative rock movement of the 90s. Their distinct sound is characterized by high gain, extensive use of feedback and distortion, and frontman J Mascis’s melodic guitar solos. Over time, Mascis shed his hardcore punk roots and revealed himself to be a disciple of Neil Young. In 1991, they toured Europe with Nirvana and Sonic Youth. Don’t miss the original lineup reunited (J Mascis, Lou Barlow and Murph) in this rare performance.
Support:
Yuck are an indie rock band that originated in London. It features members Daniel Blumberg and Max Bloom, formerly of Cajun Dance Party. Critics have compared them to My Bloody Valentine, Dinosaur Jr., Sonic Youth, Teenage Fanclub and Pavement. Their single Rubber was remixed by Mogwai.
