Solid list.

>>69630843
Hey I love Pavement. Best opener?
Best album? I can't decide, but I dont think it's CR CR or Terror Twilight

What should I listen to from Pavement next if I started with Wowee Zowee and loved it?

>best album
SaE or CR CR. I love all their albums tho.

>best opener
Summer Babe or Spit On A Stranger

>>69631148
the best album is wowee zowee for sure. ain't no bout a doubt that. Motion Suggests could chill out even the fiercest jaguars

>>69630906
Crazy that In the mouth of a desert Isnt their, also Loretta's Scars should be there. Power of Picket Fence and Range Life (although very very comfy lyrics and song) are ranked too high

>>69631165
You can't go wrong with everything up until Terror Twilight. To me they dropped off a little with that album

>>69631165
Brighten The Corners or Terror Twilight (BtC and TT are pretty similar). If you like those go check Crooked Rain.

If you already like noise rock/pop, go for Slanted

i liked slanted and crooked rain, didn't really enjoy wowee zowee on first listen
should i wait for it to click before going to brighten the corners?
also should i eventually get a copy of terror twilight?

>>69631206
All their openers are insanely good, I think I'll have to with Summer Babe though.

>>69631165
terror twilight maybe

>>69631148
I gotta say CRCR and Silence Kid. Silence Kid is probably my favourite song of theirs, though its always changing.

>>69631203
Who was in the wrong here?

>>69631203
Corgan is still complaining about Malkmus.

>>69631241
Move on to Brighten the Corners but definitely revisit Wowee Zowee. You'll even come around to the "zanier" songs. They smoked a lot of pot recording that record

>>69631261
Steve is just a chill and cool guy who likes banter.

Corgan is an asshole with god complex.

Yea, I wonder.

>>69631241
BtC clicks easier, and yes, you should get TT. It's underrated, and has some really incredible songs on it.

>>69631266
what is he complaining about?

Anyone else not really like BtC?

I love Terror Twilight though

>>69631309
This guy knows whats up.

Spit On A Stranger, Major Leagues, Carrot Rope, The Hexx are incredible songs.

>>69631315
Pavement reuniting, playing old material, not new like his 5 hout buddhist synth adventure music. He deems them sellouts for this. Ridiculous, of course people want to hear the old hits.
He has no function, I dont understand what he means and I could really give a fuckk

Why don't you like about it bro? I think it has their best lyrics aside from WZ.

>>69631358
pavement is reuniting?

>>69630906
How can someone make this list and not put Give It a Day on it?
>>69631165
That's their best album and from here on out you will be slightly disappointed

>>69631352
Right back at you, my friend. Was gonna list exactly those songs, and Don't Cry Ann additionally.

>>69631375
No sorry, back when they did. They might do it again though

>>69631358
I thought the beef between Malkmus and Corgan was older than that.

>>69630843
>I don't think anyone here loves Pavement as much as I do.
How dare you, anon. I am the biggest fan of Pavement. I could spit on you right now. After all, you are a stranger.

>>69631299
I dunno about that senpai, Hit the Plane Down sounds pretty vindictive to me

>>69631358
what? what about the Jicks? it's not Malkmus gave up on making new music

How would you rank their albums guys?

For me is:
Slanted = Crooked Rain > WZ > BtC > TT.

TT is their worst but still an 8/10 for me. They have one of the best discography in rock history.

>>69631250
Thanks anons. I think I'll listen to Terror Twilight next

>>69631445
Malkmus knew about 9/11?

>>69631470
only heard their first 3
slanted > crooked rain >> wowee zowee

>>69631415
Yeah, it stems from the "diss" in Range Life which I referenced at the end. That was in 94, and Corgan blocked them from playing Lollapalooza or some other big festival by threatening to cancel his show if they got to play. The sellout stuff is the 'Corgan still talks about them today' stuff.

>>69631450
Yeah no, I know. I don't really know what Corgan thought he was saying.

>>69631445
Not Stephen's song

>REUNION TOUR FUCKIN WHEN?
6 years ago.

>>69631500
why the hate for wz

>>69631563
I want them to do it again. I was listening to fuckin Slipknot back in 2010 :(

>>69631470
Slanted=Brighten the Corners>(ever so slightly) Wowee> Crooked Rain> Terror Twilight

hi is this the rush discussion thread

i have a question about the voice of geddy lee

>>69631596
back in 2010 i was considering myself intellectually superior to my peers because i would always listen to the same 3 or 4 classical pieces that literally everyone knows

>>69631603
I can answer, after all I am your fact checking cuz'

>>69631642
does he speak like an ordinary guy?

>a girl will never look at you like Bob look at Malkmus

>>69631776
cute

post Pavement songs you think are underrated

i think Stop Breathin kicks ass

>>69633136
Love that track
My pick would be Linden Lions, the melody is just perfect

>>69633136
Our Singer for sure. Their best closer.

Say what you all will, Terror Twilight is a strong 9/10. It's a bit polished for typical pavement, but it's amazing. Their "worst" album has to be BtC and it's still an 8/10. Best band of the 90s and last great indie rock band.
