- Chorus-Only Song: After a manner of speaking. "Don't" consists of five and a half minutes of noise rock and Lou Barlow screaming: "Why don't you like me?!" until he coughed up blood.
- Covered Up: Not exactly, but Dinosaur Jr.'s version of "Just Like Heaven" is well known and well liked. Robert Smith says it's his favorite cover of any of his songs, and that it's influenced the way it's played live.
- Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Just as popular, if not more so, in the UK than the US.
- Memetic Hair: J Mascis would look very strange without the long hair.
- Nightmare Fuel: "Don't" is arguably their heaviest song and seems to exist solely for the purpose of making the listener feel uncomfortable.
- Signature Song: A few different candidates, but "Feel the Pain" and "Start Choppin" are their most commercially successful songs, and continue to be mainstays of their live sets.
