Little Fury Things

Opening the seminal indie-rock album 'You're Living All Over Me', this track perfectly balances ear-piercing volume with a deeply lethargic, melodic slacker-pop core. J Mascis utilizes a massive, saturated Big Muff fuzz pedal to create walls of distortion that are suddenly pierced by Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth contributing chaotic backing vocals. The song set a massive precedent for the heavy guitar-pop of the 1990s.
