I don't come round here too too much, at least not to post. i usually just read. But i do come round when i hear people talking Pavement. I just do. Cuz i love em...esp S.M. for how brilliant he is. yeah, I put em up there with Pixies, early REM. and the mighty SY. SM is a true songwriter, more than most of the heavyweight big bands out there..
I def don't understand comparisons to Fall and Television. They sound completely like neither. Mark E Smith is lucky to grab one melody per tune for Gods sakes. Try putting that boy on an acoustic next to SM and you'll see what i mean..
