Free So Free (Reissue) (Vinyl LP)

Best known as the frontman of the influential indie rock trio Dinosaur Jr., J Mascis has also been a solo artist, producer, and film composer. Getting his start as a founding member of the hardcore band Deep Wound, Dinosaur Jr. was founded in 1984 and the group emerged among the most highly regarded alternative rock. By introducing volume and attack in his songs Mascis shed the strict limitations of early 1980’s hardcore, becoming an influence on the burgeoning grunge movement. Mascis’ body of work continues to inspire a generation of guitar players and songwriters today.

In 2022, Mascis released Free So Free, his second recording under the moniker J Mascis + The Fog following 1997's More Light. The album was recorded at Bob's Place. J. Mascis with Fog in tow, produces a fine collection of ear-throttling indie rock dappled with hallmark guitar solos, jaunty riffing and succulent melodies.

Members and collaborators of The Fog have included Mike Watt (Minutemen / fIREHOSE), Ron Asheton (The Stooges), Robert Pollard (Guided By Voices), Kevin Shields (My Bloody Valentine), Dave Schools (Hard Working Americans / Widespread Panic) and Kyle Spence (Harvey Milk).
