Dinosaur Jr leader J Mascis returns with a new solo album titled Tied To A Star on August 25th. Mascis' new album highlights his strong songwriting skills and distinctive voice, but doesn't (and isn't supposed to) rock in the way Dinosaur Jr does. Stream the album in full ahead of its release this week over at NPR (those in U.K./Europe can access the stream here) and pre-order Tied To A Star from iTunes, Amazon, and Sub Pop.
