Dinosaur Jr - Tiny



  Back in the 80's/90's there were lots of great indie rock bands, nowadays it seems to be a genre that has lost it's way as guitars have been ditched in favour of overproduced, autotuned, soulless pap. Luckily we still have Dinosaur Jr popping up every few years opening up a window into the past with consistently great new albums.

  Still featuring the original line up (this is their 4th post reunion album), J Mascis, Lou Barlow and Murph have come up trumps again. Give A Glimpse Of What Yer Not is another winner. Out now on Jagjaguwar, you can check out a couple of tracks here : https://dinosaurjr.bandcamp.com/album/give-a-glimpse-of-what-yer-not

  This song would have sounded at home on pretty much all of their albums bar maybe the first couple. It's timeless and so very good. This is Tiny.....

Coming out I'm deep in doubt I'll meet you
Calling out it's always with a stare
I can't give you less than what I mean to
I'll pretend that I don't see you, baby

I wanna know
I wanna go
I'm all alone
I wanna know

You place a friend I'm overwhelmed I need to
Fear is good you understood it wrong
Box is overflowing and I see you
Feeling is I can't be friends for long

I wanna know
I wanna go
I'm all alone
I wanna know

I know it, I know it for sure
I'll blow it, I know it, it's her
Did I show you a compass of ?
I'll know it
I'll know it

I wanna know
I wanna go
I'm all alone
I wanna know

Calling out
Come and take it back and you know where
Call your friends, it all depends on me to
Call me back get on track I swear

I wanna know
I wanna know
