...post-hoppers Subtle take the blues-horror of “Farewell Ride” into the urban jungle, and are smart enough to add some new vocals, in the most drastic remix strategy on the album. Homelife gets an honorable mention for having the balls to turn the guitar-crunch of “E-Pro” into a new-wave hoedown, which is fun, if not terribly moving.Besides these peaks, the remixes are pretty much watered-down rehashes of the originals. The difference between Beck’s “Earthquake Weather” and remix...

J’s professed love for Neil Young and accomplished songwriting almost single-handedly revived the guitar solo in punk rock, one of the reasons for Dinosaur Jr.’s enduring legacy. The trio released three seminal albums in the ’80?...

Her line, “you said, you would love me until you died/and as far as I know, you’re still alive,” is eerily identical to Morissette?...
