That's great. I am extremely glad to hear that someone else on the planet is vibing out to the deep cuts that I am all about vibing out to.

Fuck, there are some jams in there! Including some A.R. Kane dude remixing one of the songs from Hex. Damn. Deep cuts don't come deeper than that, no, sir.

I have one more wing left and am spinning the fuck out of Watery, Domestic, ftr.

Jesus. I didn't realize until just now how much my life sucks. You're crushing it, B.

Fuck, there's gotta be some tasty food somewhere near you, dude. I know you got some hot sauce in the house. Put that shit out on everything in sight and live it up, brother.

I was ranking Pavement albums in my head recently and came to the conclusion that each is better than the one that came after. Watery, Domestic is easily on the same level as Slanted and Enchanted though.

I just ate some bomb-ass frozen custard. When it comes to eats, I'm good. But the turntable is still down. Pretty dark days, man.

That's not an unreasonable stance.

At some point I might have said that the last couple albums were a step down (especially Brighten The Corners), but nowadays they just feel like the perfect end to a solid '90s rock band career.

I'm playing W, D on the S&E reissue and I'lll have to expound upon your claim thusly: this band's most awesome, undervalued period was documented via the stuff found on W, D, the "W, D sessions" tracks ("So Stark" and "Greenlander" and "Sue Me Jack"??? Damn!!!), and the second disc of the Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain reissue. Gary Young on drums plus Scott and Steve doing all the parts like old times. Make an album out of that shit and it's the perfect bridge between the first two official full lengths and as good as both. That's where so many of the (often best) Wowee Zowee tracks came from, anyway.

I'm still pretty into this particular artist, yeah.

Gary Young was the shit.

Another banger.

thought this post was about the hot wings & onion rings

They were calamari rings.

^ can't get enough of these loops. like how the artist discogs page lists three of his aliases.

a 2xLP release of this and the single would be a serious aoty contender for me.

I downloaded and installed a brand new unarchiver app yesterday expressly for the purpose of downloading Paves' chill-quiet storm mixes later tonight.

Now if only they had an app to download those calamari rings...

I ate all of that food in one sitting, ftr.

How about "False Skorpion"?

I think I bought everything from "Exact Wording of Threat" up to the 4-song 7 inch with the dragon on the cover as they were released, and imo they put out no bad songs over the course of those records. I think the only reason I stopped buying the singles was not wanting to start colleting 3 song cds.

I remember seeing detailed song-by-song credits for Wowee Zowee, and a few songs were complete solo SM recordings, a la "Why Don't We Do It in the Road".

Looking over the Pavement discography on Wikipedia, the only one I didn't buy was "Range Life", and that ep was called Pacific Trim.

I have frequently seen the Poster formerly known in other quarters as Pavement ist Rad listed as "Paves." The singular possessive of Paves would be Paves'

Wait, so the person who taught me the James's hat rule was misinformed? I thought you had to add another s unless you were referring to a religious prophet such as Jesus or Moses. I didn't neg you.

Definitely read that as James Iha rule.

Wait, we have carve outs to the rules of grammar especially for religious figures?
