SLANTED AND ENCHANTED

"In the Mouth a Desert"

"Jackals, False Grails: The Lonesome Era"

This song is nuts. I miss my old OB-8 http://www.vintagesynth.com/oberheim/ob8.jpg RIP

trippy

this is a tough one. my 20 year old self is screaming 'conduit for sale!' but my 36 year old self is all 'well, wait a minute now. lets think about this.'

"In the Mouth of a Desert" or "Zurich is Stained"

okay or "Here"

I pick Zurich

this is basically impossible

I went with perfume v

Trigger Cut and Perfume V would be sterling selections but my says everything's ending Here.

this is super easy for me for every other Pavement album. this is the toughest decision by far.

perfume v v. zurich is stained for me, but it seems like a lie!

i sort of want to vote for summer babe bc it is a great song and maybe it will get no votes?

can I write in "totally wired"

so cool that people love perfume v. that was my favorite for a while, but i kind of feel like summer babe is undeniable. so don't worry horseshoe.

like a docents lisp, like a damsels spit, like a dry gins twist...OF LIME!

listening to this album right now; thank you this thread!

"Circa 1762" from the deluxe edition is better than any of these.

But I'll go with Summer Babe.

zurich is stained
but i'd like 5 votes

it's underground, out of sight

can I write in "totally wired"

In the Mouth a Desert. Probably my favourite Pavement song.

this is basically impossible

listening to this album right now; thank you this thread!

what about "conduit for sale" and "loretta's scars"?!?

or "fame throwa"?!?

head-borne cries from zenith sluts, astral
rites from dead-end ruts
these ends are sick-end wars
these ends are sick-end wars

basically impossible

"Here" on John Peel is awesome. What record is that on?

in the mouth a desert or zurich is stained

i'll go with desert today

Loretta's Scars or Zurich

i also thought about voting for loretta's scars! but i think fame throwa is a little less good than many of these songs.

'Here' is good but so much better as live/peel sesh version.

^End of this song reminds me of my dorm room radiator, circa. 1992.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Sooo, is there any more stuff of Loretta online anywhere? She’s beautiful! AND wearing a track jacket AND mesh shorts? Those are dreams, right there.

"In the Mouth of a Desert"

Never really been a big fan of this album or this band. If you vote for "Chesley's Little Wrists" I don't ever want to talk to you. Ever.

you think it's easy, but you're wrong.

near impossible but went w/trigger cut

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

"in the mouth a desert" used to be one of my favs but i've tired of it so much. the best songs are "here" & "summer babe" but "loretta's scars" and "zurich is stained" are right behind

the last band i was in covered that as our first song together at our first practice at the request of the bass player and me, but the drummer was a death metal drummer and sort of the odd man out, not really familiar with pavement, at all really, so he used all these fast tom fills and double bass blast beats. the song had never sounded worse~

k3vin k. is matthew perpetua and i claim my $5 foot long.

lol wut

Just discovered Secret Knowledge of Backroads and it might as well be my favorite track from that era.

there's a version of that on The Arizona Record too

was just thinking about the Silver Jews the other day cause there was this front page NYT story about shady lobbying groups fighting the minimum wage increase and the main group was owned by Berman's dad that he hates :/

o_O weird trivia there.
i love pavement. we listen to them a lot in the car.

it was a big thing a couple of years ago, he "quit music" and wrote an open letter on the drag city board

Over the stalls, pacers pace.

^^^^ best peel session

zurich is stained

love the guitars on that one a lot, like how they’re slightly of out tune with each other in the chorus

can you treat it like an oil well?

not sure if I voted in this but it's "Perfume-V" for me

Sha la la la la.

The answer is our singer
