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.

Open call for prison architects
Send me your blueprints asap
Stack the walls such that I cannot breathe
Man is breedin forever, because of the weather I hope soon to leave from
The east
No more absolutes, no more absolutes
Stick your penitentiary clothes inside the vent and run along, leigh
Amateur seasalt gatherers colonized
Theyre good enough for conrad hilton, not good enough for my eyes
I trust you will tell me if I am making a fool of myself
Man is breedin forever, breedin forever, they come out and blister the
Sea, oh yeah
