PAVEMENT

With their fractured songs, unexpected blasts of feedback, laconic vocals, cryptic literate lyrics, 

and defiant low-fidelity, Pavement were one of the most influential and distinctive bands 

to emerge from the American underground in the '90s. Pavement, along with Sebadoh, 

were the leaders of the lo-fi movement that dominated U.S. indie rock in the early '90s

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)

Listening to Slanted & Enchanted is like listening to a college radio station that you can barely tune in -- melodies 

are interrupted by shards of white noise, only to have a simple hook pull everything back into focus. 

On their first full-length album, Pavement constructed a cycle of gleeful guitar noise punctuated by fragments 

of melody floating in and out of the chaos. Aesthetically, the thin, noisy low-fidelity production is appealing 

and uncompromising, but what makes Slanted & Enchanted remarkable is the songwriting. Instead of disguising 

an underdeveloped sense of songcraft, the production embellishes and subverts the band's gift for 

unusual, catchy hooks. Surrounded by fuzzy, noisy guitars, white noise, and Stephen Malkmus' languid 

vocals, the pure pop melodies of "Trigger Cut" and "Summer Babe" sound foreign, but the production 

gives context to the gorgeous melancholy of "Here" and the brooding "In the Mouth a Desert." 

Some listeners may initially find the lo-fi sound of the record inaccessible, but the sheer 

strength of Pavement's songs settles in after a few plays...(AllMusic)
