Pavement Album: “Cut Your Hair”

Pavement always released excellent EPs, full of bonus songs that aimed to please their fans. "Cut Your Hair," however, was the weakest of these EPs, an irony as the single was the band's big cross over hit. The extra two songs are decent, lo-fi Pavement songs that represent "Slanted and Enchanted" at it's laziness, as opposed to the indie pop of "Crooked Rain." The cover of REM's Camera builds rather nicely, and Malkmus sings with feeling. "Stare," however, doesn't go anywhere and is one of the bands weakest songs. If you like the single, you're much better off getting the album which contains more songs in a similar vein. If you like the band and want to get into their EPs, check out any other release aside from this one.
