With their fractured songs, unexpected blasts of feedback, laconic vocals, cryptic literate lyrics, and defiant low-fidelity, Pavement were one of the most influential and distinctive bands to emerge from the American underground in the '90s. Pavement, along with Sebadoh, were the leaders of the lo-fi movement that dominated U.S. indie rock in the early '90s. Initially conceived as a studio project between guitarists/vocalists Stephen Malkmusand Scott Kannberg in the '80s, Pavement gradually became a band during the early '90s. Along the way, their initial EPs and debut album, 1992's Slanted & Enchanted, earned a devoted following of musicians, indie fans, and critics.

Fight This Generation Lyrics

Pavement

Woke up to people so tall to you
I cant so I wont stand
Up chuck break luck
Look for the splinters you might see where they come in
Go down, sweet yardley
I wont let you fall down, sweet yardley
I wont let you fall down, here, now
Ah- God damn the guts and the gore
Nobodys crying cause theres no one to score for
Come up sweet randy
I wont let you fall -what you got to lose?
What you got to prove?
Who you gonna screw down here? ..now
Here now ..i am.. here now..i am... here... now...
Your life is about to-to come
Away from the mirror in a rainshed
Generation
Fight this generation (x 15 or so)
Stop right
