I've heard it once and remember thinking it just sounded like fairly decent alternative rock, nothing ground breaking or too interesting.

A little bit better than Slanted and Enchanted, but still pretty boring.

Amazing. Not as good as Slanted and Enchanted, but that's a pretty high bar, anyway. The first 9 songs are outstanding (well, I'm not crazy about "5-4=Unity", but it's pretty good). I'm not too big on "Heaven Is a Truck" or "Hit the Plane Down", but fortunately they finish off strong with "Fillmore Jive". Very solid overall.

It's an amazing record. Probably Pavement's best, it's always a bit difficult for me to tell, because all first three are incredible.

An amazing band and an amazing album. used to be on my chart, and I still give it quite a few listens every now and then.

Great album but it's been slowly moving down my chart for a while now.

I love this album, it's my #23. It's Pavement's easiest album to listen, I think. Still Wowee Zowee is better!
