the band is fine but that's just too much.

total not crap. But admittedly I'm kind of obssessed with them, despite not discovering them until I reached high school--a few years after they broke up.

the world can never have too much wowee zowee goodness..

I like them a lot. The music sounds so amazingly easy, but i guess it´s really elaborate stuff. I almost always have a good time listening to Pavement.
NC!!

I am listening to the rerelease of Wowee Zowee right now. I am underwhelmed. The album itself is still great, but the extras leave a lot to be desired. The out-takes aren't nearly as exciting or interesting as on the Slanted rerelease. The b-sides were always more accessable and easily found, so they're nothing new. The live stuff is too few and doesn't sound nearly as clear as the show on the Slanted rerelease.

I'd have paid 5 times as much for a complete show from this era.

Slanted is good...good enough for a NC.
