Pavement - Slanted and Enchanted | 90s Album Review
Manage episode 477107823 series 2546756
Pavement's 1992 debut album Slanted and Enchanted is a landmark in 1990s alternative music. Featuring cryptic lyrics, jagged guitar riffs, and a laid-back, DIY aesthetic that defined the band's early sound and the emergent lo-fi movement. The low budget recording contributes to its raw and unpolished sound, blending noise rock, pop hooks, and experimental structures with an ear for unusual melodies and hooks. While not everyone's cup of tea thanks to out-of-tune guitars and the unpolished recording quality, even those not familiar or fans of lo-fi might still find something to check out.
