Pavement is a great, mostly unheralded indie rock group. I first heard about them through their close association with Blur, and their influence on Blur's self-titled album. They gained the most promincence a few years back when the song "Cut Your Hair" from the album Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain began to get airplay and even appeared on Beavis and Butthead. Since then, the band has continued to improve its style with the great album Brighten the Corners. I don't know what to say about these guys other than to tell you to go out and buy any one of their albums because they are an awesome band. To hear some of their stuff, follow the link on the bottom to hear Pavement in REAL AUDIO!

Imagine someone who has somehow learned English only, innocently, in a Jonathan Richman accent.
It's not bad, 'cause it's weirdly passionate. Not "authentic," just real. And thumbing its nose?
No one to answer to but that jerk you might turn into next week without knowing it.
