    It's not Pavement. And that's exactly why I'm giving it a better score than anything I'd ever give Pavement. On the other It's not Pavement. And that's exactly why I'm giving it a better score than anything I'd ever give Pavement. On the other hand he will never he come close to capturing what the Reid Brothers, the Pixies and Sonic Youth had on even their worst day. Pavement was only acclaimed because we needed something to fill the void the Pixies left behind in the early 90s. Durpa! Durpa! Cut Your Hair! I'd rather cut my own throat than listen to Pavement!

    Frees malkmus of the limitations of being in Pavement with definitely a more personal sound (guitar solo's et al)
