Slanted And Enchanted by Pavement

Slanted and Enchanted is Pavement's first album, and it's a pretty great start. Now I have always felt a little guilty that I never listened to Pavement when I was in high school, because they would have been right up my alley. I guess I never bought one of their albums because the cover of Wowee Zowee looked stupid to me. Well my bad. Anyway, this one is kind of garagey noise punk, but gentle.

RATING: 76%

Yay Pavement.

I call bullshit. I think 76% greatly undervalues the importance of the album's contributions to the "indie" music scene of the 1990's. There I said it at the risk of sounding like a pretentious ass.
