      +jazzblaster I used to play the bass like that in one of my old bands... I was like the only Dino Jr fan out of my friend group... They were into the more mainstream music Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana etc. Dinosaur Jr. is too good for the mainstream.

    • @NickHarman

      I don't think that's fair, Lou plays a lot of chords and as far as Dino goes he's precisely what the band needs.

      Playing with a pick and attacking higher on the neck makes the notes sound louder and fuller. He does that so he can be heard next to the deafening volume of the guitar. But he also plays a lot of chords so his sound isn’t just loud, muddy and uninteresting. All in all, it’s a style of playing that fits this band perfectly

    Does anyone know the name of the chord J is playing around the beginning that sounds sorta like an F but is played about 3-5 frets up?

      im not sure exactly if i am talking about the same thing: the chord he plays right before the riff on the open c chord? i have seen other people ask about that chord as well. i dont think it sounds like an F though. i'm p sure it's just the bottom part of a C bar chord at the 3rd fret, with his pinky hammering the F on the B string. so he arpeggiates C on the G string, followed by G on the high E string, and then pulls off from F->E on the B string. which is why i guess it "sounds" like an F to some people, but the root of the chord is still C.
