As we reported recently (TMT News), Dinosaur Jr. have signed to Jagjaguwar for their new LP. Details were scant at the time, but details ain't scant anymore. On June 23, Jagjaguwar will release Farm, the band's fifth LP with the original lineup of J Mascis, Lou Barlow, and Murph. The album was produced by Mascis and recorded in his Bisquiteen studio in Amherst, MA.
Having just played some shows at SXSW (TMT Review), Dinosaur Jr. are set to embark on a month-long tour beginning next week. Sure, you could just wait for DJ fanatics to upload shitty videos to YouTube (and then watch a sexy Brad Pitt montage!!), but if you purchase tickets to these shows, you will also get either a digital download code or a tour-only 7-inch for "I Don't Wanna Go There" (b/w "Tarpit"). Hmmm: the 7-inch is made of petroleum, but the download code doesn't quite have the cool currency that vinyl does. ARGH! Life is so hard! I should just end it now.

1. Pieces
2. I Want You To Know

4. Plans
