hey, influence is influence, and a young band is going to wear theirs on their sleve, especially pavement which was just malkmus and spiral stairs for a while, then their drummer, Young. OF COURSE they sound like their idols. I mean, complaining about this is stupid and the dudes in thefall can eat it.
may as well call Polvo and Unwound rip-offs too for sounding like the GODS OF ROCK, SONIC YOUTH
