Most people should know that you can’t really catergorize bands properly. the ‘big 4′ grunge bands were all quite different but got given that title. likwise oasis and blur as britpop, the clash and the pistols as punk.

A really good band with several terrific songs, I was able to see Jale play live two or three times back then. I still have their cd’s, so it was great to see this again.

Yeah, Dino Jr spliced with the Breeders. That’s how I hear it…
