Former Pavement member Mark Ibold has been hanging out in the studio with Sonic Youth while they work on their as-yet-untitled sixteenth album and will appear on the album.
Ibold will appear on a song that is tentatively titled ‘That’s What We Know’.
The album is currently being mixed in New York with producer John Agnello, who guided them through their amazing last album ‘Rather Ripped’.
In other Pavement news, word has been circulating between Ibold and former Pavement front man Stephen Malkmus about a Pavement reunion.
Don’t hold your breath, but words have been said to the effect of “it could happen”. It’s ten years since they broke up, and at the time nobody really cared, but in the past ten years a hell of a lot of fans have grown up and heard them for the first time.
Let’s just keep our fingers crossed and keep breathing as per normal, hey?
