SASAMI and J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr. have teamed up for an alternative version of her Squeeze track "Tried To Understand".

SASAMI's Squeeze album landed in March, and today (8 June) she's returned with a new version of "Tried To Understand", which features Dinosaur Jr.'s J Mascis.

""Tried to Understand" was a song that took many forms before it became what you hear on my album, Squeeze," SASAMI explains. "This rawer cut with J Mascis is kind of a peek into the different dimensions and moods one composition can inhabit. This version features Ty Segall on drums, me on bass and guitar and J on the ripping leads and backing vocals. It’s the less cute version of what spinning out can sound like."

SASAMI's new version of "Tried To Understand" with J Mascis is out now on Domino.
