This follow-up smokes.
If somebody says they don't like Pavement, this 4 track EP is my conversion tactic.
To me it's definitely a bastard child.
My logic being that fans of Slanted and Carrot Rope alike seem to over look it, and it's release was still a few years ahead of Cut Your Hair hitting anyone's ears.
But for my taste, Crooked/Wowee Zowee is peak Pavement, so YMMV!
