18. Listen to Sweep It Into Space
From Massachusetts power trio Dinosaur Jr. Jagjaguwar, April 23.
On Dino’s 12th album (its fifth since reuniting in 2005), singer-guitarist J Mascis’s yearning vocals and growling leads are tuneful, and bassist and Sebadoh front man Lou Barlow’s requisite turns on the mic are disarming and tender. Drummer Murph is still a beast on the kit.
