J Mascis: The Six Guitarists You Must Hear... (The Daily Swarm)

Guardian:

> "Ever since Dinosaur Jr's bilious blend of heavy rock riffage, punk attitude
and whiny melodic nous paved the way for grunge back in the 80s, Mascis has
been the role model for long-haired loafers with rock god pretensions
everywhere. "I've never liked rehearsing too much," he admits, unsurprisingly.
"I've always thought it was really strange when people would play the same
solo that's on the record. When I play a solo I'm just expressing that moment.
It can go horribly wrong easily enough. Some nights you can pull stuff off,
other nights you can't ? but you don't know until you try."

> However, with J confined to the unplugged arena for the time being, what the
Guardian wants to know is which young bucks he sees as the heirs to his
heroically sloppy guitar-slinging legacy."
