Seriously. Best Dino song by far. Or maybe Tarpit. Or Little Fury Things. Or Kracked. Whatever, all of YLAOM. But seriously, The lung is insane.

Murph and Lou are such a powerful rhythm section. The solo is also probably one of the best solos of all-time.

Here's the version off of the middle east dvd with an extra extended genius solo. I ripped it a while ago and split it into wav files. This should only be played at full blast. Seriously.

I was pleasantly surprised this was the first song Mascis & The Fog played at the 10 Years ATP 'cos it meant there was no need to hang around for the rest of the set.

I do love that song. That G D C part is one of the few riffs I ever bothered to learn on guitar, it's very fun to play for some reason.

Love this song, everything on the album really. I absolutely love the whammy bar riff a little over 30 seconds in.... Plus as mentioned the G D C progression is so much fun to play, the whole song is for that matter.

"Nowhere to collapse the lung, breathes a doubt in everyone" is so simple but yet so effective.

great song, absolutely, sludgefeast rocks too, especially how it goes into that end riff/solo on it.
