Dinosaur Jr. - Now the Fall 7'' (Jagjaguwar, 2013)

Rating: 6.5 broken cell phones out of 10

A new seven inch by Dinosaur Jr. featuring two unreleased songs.  Side A "Now the Fall" is your typical Dino affair, and side B "Ricochet" features the vocals of Lou Barlow.  The songs were recorded at the same time as their previous full-length "I Bet on Sky" and were apparently included as a limited edition extra when you bought that record, but now you can snag it on it's lonesome if you are so inclined.  Neither track is a game changer but any new music by these guys is welcome to these ears - I'd rank it a "C" in their catalog but that's still better than the best of what most musicians produce.  I can't think of anything more worthwhile to say here.
