the second side has twenty odd unreleased tracks on it. god damn god damnit. this will easily be the best (re)release of 2004.
oh and word has it, Malkmus is putting the final touches on his third solo album with the Jicks. due out in march next year.
what a time for pavement fans to be alive.

eeeeeeksellent

 

[a8o]

I've given up on Malkmus. His first two solo records were rubbish compared to the trio of Pavement releases - S&E, CRCR and that "Chook EP" I hardly remember the name of! I've been listening to Pavement 1998 and was almost brought to tears when I heard they'd broken up, effectively ending any chance of seeing them live. It's just not the same with Preston School and Malkmus solo works diluting the quality of Pavement releases, however, the quality was never as good as the classic early 90s records. Wowee Zowee was the last one I'll be picking up the re-release for. The others just don't seem worth the trouble.

Some of the tracks on this one are outstanding ('Spoiled Little Filly') and some of the unreleased takes are just great. Some of the tracks also appeared on the essential Stuff Up the Cracks bootleg; exact same take, but far better sound quality. I remember CDR trading for that boot and being blown away thinking "why wasnt this commercially released?" well now it pretty much is.

Excuse me, these guys were definately my favourite band for along time. They were the first band I ever got seriously into (collected singles, japanese sides, vinyl) and so I will always have a soft spot for them.

Great re-release, 10/10.

how can you dismiss malks solo work so flippantly?

i prefer alot of pav's later material because it has alot more direction than the early stuff.
btw, you cant be THAT much of a fan if you can't remember the name of Watery domestic. it was even re-released with the luxe and reduxe S+E

 

[chelloveck]

bought it two days ago. i may as well have just bought a velvet underground cd.

 

[um..]

ooooooooooooooooo wait till mcdickpants reads that!

 

[chelloveck]

yeah i CAN'T wait for his stupid rant.

 

[stamos]

what's the use in feeling all the things i'm feeling? there's no one her to feel with me

 

[chelloveck]

yeah, it was meant to be here.

are you getting protective of poor little mcdickpants?

 

[stamos]

i'm trying to figure out whether you were insulting the velvet underground as well as pavement

 

[chelloveck]

i didn't necessarily insult either. and that was a very strange way to try and work it out. did it help?

 

[stamos]

i'm unothodox like the jews for jesus movement

 

[chelloveck]

did you just call me a jew? fuck you, man.

 

[taxman]

I'll definitely be getting my hands on this puppy. Pavement are awesome...I owe you big one for that mcdickpants...the best reference to a band ever. Name a price....I'll get someone else to pay it.

 

[stamos]

hehehe lucky he hasn't been on the net for weeks, that post would've been like a knife in his heart
