have i mentioned how much i'm enjoying the new j. mascis album? the last few dino jr. albums have been decent but have never really seemed to veer much from a sound that made them really interesting in the 80s and early 90s but less so of late. stripped of the distortion and feedback, the new disc pretty much stands on the urgency of his scratchy voice and really lovely guitar work. think this is his 'sea change' or 'mutations'.

also, stu, who gets to pick the music in your office? and what did you think of the new 'iron & wine'. was listening to it on the streetcar last week and on a couple of the tracks, i thought i was listening to george michael. needless to say, not impressed, one listen in.
