Pavement: capolavoro in lo -fi


many alternative rock bands have with the work of the inflamed public debut, only to disappoint with the following works? I immediately comes to mind the Stone Roses' first album or, and I would like to talk about the extraordinary "Slanted and Enchanted" by Pavement.

Stephen Malkmus's band, with a personal stamp Shake a cocktail of noise at Sonic Youth, restlessness of the Pixies, the Jesus and Mary Chain dissonances and above all the irreverent spirit of the Velvet Underground. Lo-fi melodic lines are scrambled and slurred by Malkmus with unusual ironic, and though it often seems that the album will be played on a light layer of sandpaper is strangely pleasant listening. It is amazing tracks such as alchemy or Loretta Summer Babe 'scars. can not miss to the power ballad and Heartbreaking Here, able to move more incorruptible purists. It seems at any moment to loose Lou Reed.

It's been almost two decades, but the emotions are always the same. Perhaps the indolence of private Malkmus has a band that could definitely mark the end of the millennium rock scene. But if you marry in a full range of life lo - fi, then no one is as consistently as Malkmus!
