Pavement shook up the scene with this release way back in the nineties. A pioneering album which sounded like nothing else. It is reportedly known that they recorded it in a matter of days, and the bass was actually guitars. Great songs, innovative and unique sound, but lacking chart hits. The song ''Summer Babe'' appeared in the rock & roll magazine, Rolling Stone's best songs of all-time list. Stephen Malkmus has always been a darling of the critics, for that ability to match the humorous with the serious like a truly gifted writer. This is no mean feat, in a world that was dominated in the grunge sound, Pavement shone a light.
