The Download

Dinosaur Jr

By Andy Vihstadt

Getting the band back together has never been more popular, and after last year's comeback tour, the members of Dinosaur Jr. have learned to tolerate one another's flannel-clad presence, at least long enough for a live DVD and new album. Slated for a May release, Beyond marks the first LP in nearly 20 years to feature all of the band's original lineup. But can grunge make a comeback? Decide for yourself at Pitchforkmedia.com, where you can download the new track, "Almost Ready." Sure, it isn't as exciting as the Police reuniting, but at least it's more reliable than this summer's scrubbed Van Halen tour with David Lee Roth.
