  Fuzzed-out melancholy at its most melodic. J Mascis makes guitar heroics sound wounded and introspective. Essentially a J Mascis solo record in all but name, and the isolation hangs over it beautifully. “The Wagon” and “Thumb” balance huge guitar leads with melodies that sound bruised and hesitant. The playing is more controlled than earlier Dinosaur Jr. records, but emotionally it feels lonelier. It’s the sound of someone retreating inward without losing intensity.
