Review title: A Liberation From Stupid Vanities
Product review: Come on in, Pavement fans; the water's fine. The ponderous ballads and spacy noodlings of Pavement's last records have given way to some of the inspired looniness of earlier days. Songs like "Troubble" and "Jo-Jo's Jacket" hold up to anything off "Slanted and Enchanted." "The Hook" and "Jennifer and the Ess Dog" spin out longer, tighter narratives with more focus than Malkmus showed of late with the band. There's some filler on the record, but Malkmus at half-speed is better than most platinum bands at full tilt. Sad as I am to see Pavement go, this feels like a move forward. Don't know if Malkmus'll ever best his old sound--in a blind taste test you'd probably think this was Pavement--but why mess with a glorious thing? It seems like everyone's having more fun now, and so will you. Forget the cult status (so '90s!) and enjoy!
