"Tiny" was the song Dinosaur Jr. sent out first to herald Give a Glimpse of What Yer Not, their eleventh studio album. The band announced the record on May 24, 2016, the video for "Tiny" followed on June 20, and the album itself landed on August 5, weeks later. J Mascis wrote the song and produced it, John Agnello mixed it, and Mark Alan Miller, Justin Pizzoferrato and Marc Seedorf shared the engineering.
The album around it borrowed its title from a line in another of its songs, "Knocked Around", and wore a sleeve by the German painter Daniel Richter, a fan of the band, who worked from his own piece "A Flower in Flames": psychedelic squiggles, a mountain range and a fighter brandishing a guitar.
