Born Joseph Mascis on 10th December 1965 in Amherst, Massachusetts, United States, in the early 1980s he founded the short-lived hardcore group Deep Wound with his high school friends Lou Barlow and Scott Helland. He started out on drums, but moved to guitar when he went on to found Dinosaur Jr. (with bassist Barlow and drummer Patrick "Murph" Murphy in 1984), which achieved national and international success. After Mascis dismissed Barlow from Dinosaur Jr. in 1989, he recorded several more Dinosaur Jr. albums until 1997, including the 1996 acoustic solo album Martin & Me. He then went on to produce albums with his new band, J Mascis and the Fog, starting in 2000.
In April 2005, Mascis joined up again with Barlow and Murph, as the original trio of Dinosaur Jr., to begin a tour celebrating the re-release of the group's first three albums.
In August 2005, Mascis released a new solo album as J Mascis and Friends, J and Friends Sing and Chant for Amma, an album of devotional songs dedicated to Hindu religious leader Mata Amritanandamayi, or Ammachi, about whom he had previously written "Ammaring" on the first J Mascis and the Fog album More Light. The proceeds from the album are being donated to Tsunami relief efforts by Ammachi's organisation.
In late summer 2005, Mascis helped Danish band Mew by adding vocals to the song "Why Are You Looking Grave?" and backing vocals on "An Envoy to the Open Fields". Both songs can be found on Mew's newest album And the Glass Handed Kites.
In 2006, Mascis released an album with his newly-formed heavy metal band Witch, returning to drumming for their debut album, Witch.
In 2010, J Mascis teamed up with two members of Cobra Verde and one of his Witch bandmates for a new project: Sweet Apple. Like Mascis’ Witch side project, Sweet Apple finds J behind the drum kit, although he does plays guitar and sings this time around.

Sigit Budi Prasetyo
I gave more than I believe
Travel on its failing me
Trailing me trailing me
To the sea to the sea
And then
To the outer reach
Feel the way I never felt
explain again
Just to know you
And then
Release another piece of how you ever went
I'm below you
And then. And then. And then.
My friend.
Drifting cuz the peace was never lonely
We're about to place
Picture and enlist her in the grip of yet another place
Another waste
Nothing's real or ever was
Down to you is ground to dust
Who to trust who to trust
All the dust
And then
To the outer reach
wrapped inside the biggest time or overrun
Just to know you
And then
Explain to me another way to get it done
Who will I go to?
This friend. This friend. This friend.
And then
Drifting cuz the peace was never lonely
We're about to place
Picture and enlist her in the grip of yet another place
Another waste
And then.
And then.
And then.
And then

Oh man, this is so beautiful. What a sad, gorgeous, exquisitely crafted song.

I'm not sure I know of another artist as consistently brilliant as Jay. I'm going back 27 years as I was 18, yikes!
Joel Madrigal
Awesome. Thank you. This album has some good acoustic guitar. Its refreshing.
Thanks again!!
AlxFitz
@Joel Madrigal If you like this one I’d go for “More Light” by J. Mascis and the Fog. Dinosaur Jr. wise, “Bug” is a lot of people’s favourite and is seen as a classic but my choice would be “Farm” which is quite a recent one. My favourite ever Dino track is probably “Loaded” which is probably on YouTube somewhere if you’re interested!
Joel Madrigal
If I wanted to get another couple albums from J Mascis, what would you recommend ?
Knut Kniffte
270 likes, 0 dislikes. What a great community. Keep it like a secret. Greets from Rostock germany. :)
H.
Still no dislikes. Proves what people listen to this kind of music
Luis Guerra
Love this song the most!
PsychKOsys
One of my favorites to play out. J makes some great songs, on his own or with Dino Jr... He's one of the few musicians that is consistently part of my daily listening and playing. I cherish his music every day.

Man, I couldn't love this cat more. From a college senior year introduction (Where you Been) until they play him at my casket, Mascis has provided my Life's soundtrack. This gem is a typical delight; despairing, plaintive, and lost-- yet a with a fuzzy, meandering, gorgeousness that leaves one ever
hopeful. And then...
