Heavy Blanket

2012 release by this trio led by Dinosaur Jr.'s J. Mascis. Legend has it that J. took a sabbatical in 1984 from his Hardcore band Deep Wound to start something new, something slower, something louder. Hooking up with Johnny Pancake and Pete Cougar, he formed Heavy Blanket. But before the trio could record any of their music, a series of unfortunate accidents caused the band to split. In 2011, the trio reunited to tape the album they were destined to record nearly three decades ago.
