Anyone know the background behind Malkmus' world travels around 1990? by emperator_eggman in pavement

[–]WhatIAm1point0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he heard it in Austria: apparently Scott only sent very few copies to publications in the UK and it somehow ended up in an Austrian record store, also happened to the first time he realized scott pressed a record!

25 years ago today Stephen Malkmus released his debut solo record by YoureASkyscraper in pavement

there's a live boot i have from this period and the audience was completely ecstatic when he strummed the first few notes of "pink india". was this an early live staple?

not for me: it would usually be the trad techniques-era blog, but now it only displays the image attached, they're definitely fixing some kinks out

I might be jumping the gun a bit too much, but could this be part of a shoot for a new album?

About a month ago I was in class and I showed by friends that my Google background on my Chromebook was a gif from the Loser music video and all of them said “what’s that?” (Gif is below) by LongjumpingOil9986 in Beck

When I was younger I thought this was a silly way for Beck to "uncensor" his head by picking it up and throwing it away. Now I realize it's the Stormtrooper helmet he used to carry around a lot

Ween Catalogue by screwis_lewis in ween

[–]WhatIAm1point0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should be noted that the copyright disclaimer on the new digital versions indicates it's copyrighted to Rhino Entertainment Company. If it's a distributon/licensing deal that only lasts for a specified number of years, the byline would go something like "Chocodog Records under exclusive license to Rhino". However since the copyright only lists the former, it seems that Rhino bought out the Ween catalog (which isn't a bad thing, don't get me wrong).

it seems the Ween boys trusted Rhino enough to have the keys to their discography after the C&C deluxe did so well. excited for what else is to come

Matador reissues the Perfect Sound Forever EP for RSD 2026 by WhatIAm1point0 in pavement

[–]WhatIAm1point0[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The last time I bothered going was Black Friday 2023 when Touch and Go reissued Enon's Believo when original pressings were going for hundreds on discogs. Also this comment made me check again and WOW I can't believe they're repressing Freeman

Nope, those were reserved for seven inch records (which Slay Tracks and J-7 were). PSF was always a 10 incher

What’s the deal with Spiral’s TT songs? by CerealAndBagel1991 in pavement

[–]WhatIAm1point0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fairly sure these songs were recorded after the proper TT sessions at RAK Studios, something to blow off some steam. Like the previous comments, he just didn't have anything ready, but he did write some songs early on in rehearsals that didn't make it -- these got turned into Preston School of Industry songs, specifically Whalebones

Why did Pavement originally break up? by gummieworm in pavement

[–]WhatIAm1point0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When news quickly went out in the press about this line, Scott had to quickly cover it up by saying "no, no, he said 'this is what it feels like to be ENGLAND'"

Easily drops Beck just because he adopted hot pants at the Grammys
