Dinosaur Jr. - Without a Sound (1994) ☠

Country: U.S.A.
Genre: Alternative Rock
Label Number: 9 45719-2
☠: Selected by Lass
© 1994 Sire/Reprise Records
AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
J Mascis fired longtime drummer Murph before the recording of Without a Sound, which came as a surprise to Murph. Naturally, the change in personnel hasn't changed Dinosaur Jr.'s sound much; the only difference between Without a Sound and Where You Been is a more pronounced country leaning (particularly on the album's high point, the rollicking "I Don't Think So") and shorter, more concise performances. What hasn't changed are the overpowering fuzz tones of Mascis' guitar, which tend to hide his more expressive vocals; it also makes digging out the gems on this album a little more difficult than necessary.

    1. Again, that's unfortunate but we're not going to swap the Bayfiles links because one person couldn't complete a download. I can't do that. Try a different browser or clear some old cache but swapping the links for Mega, with these specific artists is not going to happen 🙁

    2. I'll look into it. Either wise he'll be flagged for Spam.
