Not recognizing this but it's awful.

ETA: it's Dinosaur Jr.
(apparently intentionally) painful singing. Guitars aren't bad.

it was great, and BOSFRA. In a sea of oh-so predictable songs that we get all the freakin' time, this is a "good thing".

That was kind of J. Mascis's style. Back then he had really long hair which was always down in his face when he played, thus giving him a very Cousin It-like appearance.

J. Mascis trivia: He was an early (maybe even high-school) boyfriend of Uma Thurman, who also grew up in Amherst.

Blur "For Tomorrow" gets a BOS. I only stuck around for the Shandling stuff; musically this has been a set from Hell for me.

Blur is the BOS for me, and though the Dinosaur Jr. was a "tough listen" it stands out, too. 

Big Head Todd?  Belly? 10k Maniacs? TFF?  Snooozefest-o-rama-ville-town

Breeders "Divine Hammer" -- at least it's not "Cannonball".
