Fuck this shit.

Inhuman · 09.16.2009, 01:45 AM

haha, I find the fact that you found that on Brooklyn Vegan more entertaining than Pavement reforming

Haha. I'm just kidding but I'm being serious in a way.. there's so much great music out there, Pavement's time has passed. I'm a big fan of the early Pavement stuff (up to and including Wowee), and I don't even really mind the Jicks but yeah. Just seems silly. I said that about Slint, MBV, etc... the only reunion that was awesome was Polvo's, because it was kinda low-key comparatively and a good record came out of it (Six Finger Satellite's reunion sucked, the record they released was awful)...

Inhuman · 09.16.2009, 01:52 AM

I like the latest stuff Malkmus has been doing. I think it takes away from the glory their earlier stuff yields. Similarly, I have not yet heard the latest stooges album for the same reason

atsonicpark · 09.16.2009, 01:56 AM

I actually think REAL EMOTIONAL TRASH and PIG LIB are both fantastic records, surprisingly (don't like the other two really). I mean, Malkmus is a bit boring as a songwriter (not really into guitar solos and shit usually which a lot of his songs have) and the energy/sloppiness of Pavement's early work is what attracts me to them -- so I'm surprised that he's able to write somewhat "mature" music that is actually quite listenable and interesting and hooky and melodically pleasing. His lyrics lately have been terrible though.. worse than ever.

Yeah, I don't really "care" about lyrics but why did Malkmus's lyrics suddenly get... non-cryptic... direct.. and uninteresting, after Slanted? Anyone know?

stu666 · 09.16.2009, 02:25 AM

i hope this is true, i never got to see them the first time round

Zombie Robot · 09.16.2009, 02:27 AM

yay! would luv to see em again.

Jeremy · 09.16.2009, 04:11 AM

Pavement is my all time favorite band, so to say this is an early birthday present for me is an understatement.

I'll be at those shows, trust me. Don't get me wrong, I thought it would be cool if they were one of those bands who never reunited, but still, my favorite band, never thought I'd see them live. YES YES YES.

Sonic Youth Gossip · 09.16.2009, 04:13 AM

This is awesome.

Gerrystumbaugh · 09.16.2009, 07:02 AM

won't be as good as the Dinosaur reunion, but will be better than the Pixies reunion.

also, it only counts if they have Gary Young.

noisereductions · 09.16.2009, 07:10 AM

too much blah blah.

Pavement = rad.

jennthebenn · 09.16.2009, 07:27 AM

It says "for real," it must be true.

Part of me is excited that it may be true--never saw 'em live--but then
part of me goes, "Do you really want to deal with the stinky Brooklyn
kids with beards larger than their heads yelling out for Gary Young the
whole time? Don't you really want a Helium reunion more?"

Also, this reunion shit is outta control. Next up, Climax Blues Band.
