'Ocean' (van Harmacy) heeft Barlow nog aan J Mascis opgedragen, trouwens... Beetje cynische tekst, waar Mascis ook geen seconde wakker van gelegen heeft, wat Barlow alleen maar meer irriteerde Maar nu tolereren ze elkaar weer en gingen ze weer samen on tour of zoiets?

Dinosaur Jr.'s Murph Talks Reunion, Recording

Matthew Solarski and Amy Phillips report:
Years ago, when college rock heroes Dinosaur Jr. went the way of the, uh, Passenger Pigeon, virtually no one expected they'd ever hear from the monolithic trio again. Flash forward to 2006: you're all wrong.

Not only are J Mascis, Lou Barlow, and the lovable Murph back on the live circuit as Dinosaur Jr., them boys is cookin' up some news tunes right now at Mascis's Massachusetts pad.

Pitchfork caught up with Murph recently, who revealed that he and his bandmates "have some frameworks and outlines [for songs] going". The primary focus for these lumbering giants right now is preparation for their world tour, announced a couple weeks back, but Murph kindly told us that the cogs are slowly coming into place at last for new Dinosaur Jr. material.

"We're playing together," said Murph. "We're at J's, just kind of hanging out, getting ready, jamming around...we're keeping our summer pretty open, so we're going to try to work on [new] stuff then."

He went on: "We're trying, but I can't really say it's concrete enough that we have this many songs and there's going to be a release date now. You have to remember that we haven't worked in this capacity in fifteen years or more, so it takes a little time to kind of gel and see how things go. It's not as easy as just like, 'Oh, let's get in there and bang out another record.'"

Fans shouldn't count on hearing these fledgling tunes on Dino's spring tour, however: "I don't know if we're ready for that. That might be a train wreck if we tried to pull that out."

Rapport's the word 'round J's place these days. "It's been pretty cool [with] Lou and his wife and the baby. We're actually staying at J's a little while this week which is pretty unprecedented...it was definitely a big family vibe. We all went out to dinner a couple of times and it was really cool."

The prehistoric power-trio are also putting together a DVD, documenting several of last fall's reunion gigs, which Murph hopes will arrive in late summer. Moreover, Dinosaur Jr. were chosen to curate a day of this May's All Tomorrow's Parties extravaganza, tapping Broken Social Scene, Mission of Burma, and Dead Meadow, among others. "J has been really keen on that," says Murph.
