Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Dinosaur Jr. frontman delivers another starkly intimate, acoustic-driven solo record characterized by his intricate fingerpicking and signature weary vocal drawl. While noticeably quieter than his legendary alternative rock output, the album still makes room for subtle, fuzzed-out electric guitar leads and guest harmonies from artists like Cat Power.
