intro
Superb latest combeack single from grunge veterans, Dinosaur Jr
'Over It' is a classic Dinosaur Jr number with wah wah guitar and husky vocals from J Mascis. Lou Barlow's bass and Murph's powerhouse drums add grit. This is a song to nod your head too in total agreement as the notes fly over your head in full volume. 'Tarpit', it B side, was recorded at a concert. As you would expect it too, it sounds much rougher. It is a full on grunge number, loud and raw, and great because of it.
