Rec | PAVEMENT’S WOWEE ZOWEE

Rec'd on 💿 6/6: WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN LISTENING TO?

With Pavements coming out soon, I’ve been going back to relisten to their entire discography and man are they at their peak here. In the past I’ve always said Crooked Rain Crooked Rain is their best but I forgot how calculated they are on Wowee Zowee. Shoutout Stephen Malkmus

Hard Q

Too tough to pick just one, I mean LCD’s self titled, Obscured By Clouds, All Things Must Pass, Crush, Longwave, The OOZ, pretty much every Kurt Vile record… all goated in my eyes. I’ll use my cop out answer to highlight 2 of my favorite contemporary album artists. First, local dude Perry Shall, who has designed many releases on Dan Auerbach’s label Easy Eye Sound. Some great Shannon & The Clams covers, an overlooked but incredibly solid Radiator Hospital album — I especially love his portrait style covers. I certainly ripped that template when designing the bootleg cover in the pinned post on my page. Which leads into artist #2… Andrew Savage of Parquet Courts fame has also designed each of the band’s releases, plus an Ultimate Painting split on Woodsist, plus I’m pretty sure both of his solo albums. Light Up Gold, Human Performance, Wide Awake!! C’mon… check out the portfolio section on his website, too, for some paintings from over the years. Asked To Leave and In Texas No Less are two of my faves.

I think what i look for in a cover for a record is how well it can describe the sound and ethos of the music. this album cover is just as messy and frantic and DIY as the songs on this project. for that i love it.
