--- - |- MTV's Subterranean blog posted an amazing performance of Pavement's "Cut Your Hair" from 1994, when they appeared on "120 Minutes". They were so much younger then, to offer an obscure R.E.M. reference that surely Stephen Malkmus would appreciate. A special new band indeed. MTV proper has two more songs from the same set, "Unfair" and "Stop Breathin'", but you'll have to sit through mi...

Brighten the Corners is a personal favourite by Pavement , and pretty much the reason we can't all agree this is a landmark in US alt. rock is the strength of Pavement's whole career. With all the bonus tracks here, it's like getting yourself a free Wowee Zowee .

Psychologists have it all wrong. Myers-Briggs? For chumps. Rorschach tests? Child's play. No, there really is one much simpler, more defining way to tell exactly what makes people tick. First, ask them if they are Pavement fans. If they say no, you can pretty much write them off immediately. I mean, for purposes [...]

I always thought of Stephen Malkmus as more of a poet who played rock music, than a rock star. He has such an amazing way with words...and I don't pretend to know what he is talking about all of the time, but i am always smiling while listening to Pavement, so he is doing something magical.Some of my favorite lines from his poetry:"Cherish your memorized weaknessFashioned from a manifesto -- la...
