Why can’t it just be cool and leave us?

Hugely exciting, if slightly baffling, news that Dinosaur Jr's Freak Scene is being re-released on June 6th in the shape of 3,000 CDs and 2,000 7"s. It invented the slacker generation single handedly, it featured guitars burrowing their way to the earth's core and came with a video shot in someone's back yard with J Mascis and Lou Barlow half-arsed in front of a graffiti'd cross. Further listening comes in the first three albums, recently remastered and re-released: Dinosaur, You're Living All Over Me and Bug.
