This is the modern, reformed Dino Jr, not the late 80s one. And as such, Farm is pretty much the perfect album for them. "I Don't Wanna Go There" is fucking amazing live, fucking amazing. This album is Dinosaur Jr making the music they want to make now and not trying to rehash "Freak Scene". Yeah, there are a lot of solos, but damn, at least it's J and not some shit metal guitarist. The solo(s) on "IDWGT" are some of the best he (or anyone) have ever done. There's really nothing else like them.
