Initially part of the wave of American alt-rock bands in the late 80s-early 90s, Dinosaur Jr. put down their guitars for good in 1997, and it seems like the band was as dead as the animal they took their name from. In the 2000s however, a rapprochement between estranged founding members J Mascis and Lou Barlow led to a reunion, and the band are now once again a fully-active, album-producing concern again. Their last record, Give a Glimpse of What Yer Not, was released just over a year ago to solid reviews, and they bring it to Stockholm in December.
