Also, I think my first comment on these forums was about Pavement being overrated... or was it Sonic Youth? I can never quite tell...

It was Sonic Youth!

I was trying to remember why I don't like you 🤔

Thanks :D

You know you love me 😉

Also, after checking, I found it was Pavement first, then Sonic Youth. Overraaaaateeeeed!

"Fun" Fact: Cut Your Hair was the inspiration to the theme for ESPN's Pardon the Interruption 😮

This probably means nothing to you if you live outside of America or don't care about sports.

(It's also inexplicably not on youtube. 🤡 )

I like Slanted and Enchanted.

I thought Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain was terribly mediocre.

Is that so wrong?

Great album. I prefer Slanted and Enchanted, but this is great as well and shows why Pavement was the best band of the 90's (IMO)

I saw this at my local record store and almost bought it because I liked Slanted & Enchanted so much. Maybe I'll pick it up next time.

My personal favorite Pavement album. While I'm not the biggest Pavement fan in the world, I won't deny that this album had a big impact on Charlie N. George's The Book of Abysmality.
