DELETE THIS
12 rods
Billy is still complaining about Pavement
tool
Guided by Voices
Spiritualized, Kingston Wall, Ozric, pretty much everyone from the 90s space rock renaissance. I never understood the appeal of Pavement, boring as fuck.
Built to Spill
Fishmans
Nirvana
Slint
given that gbv are the best 90s band this is a pretty good answer
This nigga gets it
>that Propeller to Bee Thousand streak
>not propeller to under the bushes under the stars
Hum
Sunny Day Real Estate
Alien Lanes and Under the Bushes are pretty much hit and miss, but Propeller and Bee Thousand are just perfect
Also pumpkins, duster, modest mouse but pavement is still good
but alien lanes is their best album :^)
Prove me wrong
The Jesus Lizard
Pavenent is beige-ass boring shit.
to elaborate
absolutely nothing about Pavement is especially strong or stands out; guitar is just kinda there, drums are just kinda there, bass could disappear without incident, vocal melodies are largely forgettable. The songwriting as a whole is jist really bland and forgettable, and the band is basically only notable for pioneering that "it's good background noise I guess" brand of unremarkable indie rock
everyone in the Jesus Lizard was borderline virtuosic at their instrument while never delving into mindless wankery, and each brought a style of playing completely and wholely unique to not only them but specifically their time in that band. Nobody sounds Duane Denison, David Sims, Mac McNeilly, or ESPECIALLY David Yow (it's incredibly easy to tell when someone is copying him and exactly 0 people have actually done it well), and nobody sounds like or ever will sound like The Jesus Lizard. A million fucking douchebag suburb-raised college kids sound like Pavement.
the beatles

Nice opinions bro you really won me over
They formed in the 80s, but both their 90s albums are great
I listened to these guys once but it just seemed like a watered down Dinosaur Jr. Should I give them another listen
stereolab
Saint Etienne
Try Wowee Zowee, but I think Dinosaur Jr is the better band.
pavement and dinosaur jr dont even sound alike wtf
...
Idk it just seemed to me they were just going along with the same thing Dinosaur Jr. and Hums and similar bands were doing but without really good songwriting. But then again, that was just one listen a while ago. I could very well be wrong
*Hum
man or astroman > pavement
...
you continue to live up to your name
Fugazi.
Pavement a shit
3 out 4 contribute nothing
lol Jawbreaker
pavement is okay but i mean i can only take so much christmas music
Stephen Malkmus is a great songwriter. what the fuck are your problem?
>But then again, that was just one listen a while ago. I could very well be wrong
Don't get butthurt that I wasn't blown away upon first listen
Soul Coughing
also cap'n jazz
:^)
is that concentration camp footage?
Godspeed released their debut LP and the Slow Riot EP in the 90s. Nothing else even comes close. Fuck that lazy ass Lofi tripe, that shit is easy to do and responsible for the downfall of indie music. Making powerful cinematic post-rock actually takes skill.
