Both are top Pavement for me, but I like that tail end on Wowee Zowee a lot. That album is loaded and crowded to me, but Kennel District kicks of a stretch that really opens everything up like a road leading away from a city towards some desert oasis.

Knowing that you dudes like Malkmus, have you ever heard of Krill? They are now defunct, but had some good buzz going for a while. This is probably their biggest hit:

Spiral's album "Doris & The Daggers" went largely unnoticed earlier this year, but it was pretty great.
I've got this on now. I don't think I've ever actually listened to Spiral's solo stuff. Fun to listen and pick out the things he brought to Pavement. Are we totally sure this isn't actually Lee Ranaldo singing on this thing, though?

I've said it a different way just a few posts ago, but this Spiral Stairs album is really enjoyable. Sure, it came out earlier this year, but listening to it now I can hear this unmistakable late summer vibe with those jangly guitars. Part sunny, part lazy, kind of melancholy.
I might have to revisit some Pavement albums soon with an ear tuned to Kannberg's frequency.

Playing Brighten the Corners today. Transport is Arranged is such a monster of a track. I think my love for this song prepared me for things like Queens of the Stone Age.

I wonder if Spiral and SM ever properly "made up." From what I've read they were basically besties at the beginning of Pavement, then had a massive falling out that facilitated the break up of the band. I've read some interviews with both of them during and after the reunion tour and they really don't seem like they're "friends" anymore. Rock and roll break ups aren't anything new, but this one bothers me. Maybe it's because they were such a fun band.

As much as I love Pavement and Malkmus, I've never bothered to learn their story. Any good books or noteable interviews you can point me to? How about that documentary?
