Originally released in March 1997, Hand It Over is a brilliant, complex, diverse and fitting end to the Dinosaur Jr major label era. Pressed on 180 gram vinyl this re-issue features heavyweight sleeve and newly designed inner bag. Bouncing back from the more measured 'Without A Sound', J Mascis turns in his most eclectic album since 'Green Mind' with 'Hand It Over'. Dinosaurs bedrock sound still hasn't changed - its still a sprawling, electric mess of hard rock filtered through folk-rock song structures - but Mascis plays with the arrangements, adding strings, trumpets, and on a handful of tracks, My Bloody Valentine's slippery guitar orchestrations and vocals (Kevin Shields and Bilinda Butcher both sing on the album). These addition make the music sound fresh, but they would only be window dressing if Mascis' songs weren't as strong a they are.
