    I really wish they'd "remaster" this album with their modern recording capabilities. The songs pop out so much more live than they do on the album.

      I think you probably shouldn't mess with a great album I like it just fine . Also the noise and Ambience of the recording is part of what drew me to Dinosaur Jr to begin with . Just one reporters opinion

      I'm terrible with album and song names, but I have a Dinosaur Jr album that sounds like it's coming through an apartment wall. Some remasters are definitely in order for this level of music!

      Incredibly underrated? They're rated just right. They've got loads of credit and respect. Among the Z-generation, they might be underrated compared to, say, Nirvana, but that's as far as their underratedness goes.

    It's floating through the abyss
    Under the brig my head swings down
    Beware her wrath, the image gone
    The shell is crumbling, fix my frown
    This spell would be clear in non-tradition
    And stepping on these pieces of pain and smirk
    And rape goes through to sin my eyes
    And shapes know where the heartache will lurk
    Forget the swan, a stone swims near
    A stone has come, if I could cheer
    Forget the swan
    Forget the swan
    Drifting among this rubble
    I guess the waiting, wished I would
    I found a box, untethered and true
    Possession it understood
    Forget the swan, a stone swims near
    A stone has come, if I could cheer
    Forget the swan
    Forget the swan
    How I tried to warn my neighbor
    But the corn was much too high
    In confusion up and threw him, woke up every day
    But it's not too late brother, I'll still say you were mine
    Forget the swan, a stone swims near
    A stone has come, if I could cheer
    Forget the swan
    Forget the swan
    Forget the swan, the dreams are gone
    The pain goes on, they fly at dawn
    Forget the swan
    Forget the swan
    Forget the swan
    Forget the swan

    Jay M. has managed to create his very own Syle. But the other two are also part of it. Mr. B. his exelente voice and his bass playing, which is in the remotest sense, rather a guitar style on the bass, also makes very important ingredients to make the soup taste as it tastes at DINOSAUR Jr. Unique and immediately to taste, from the day's porridge.
