I edited my post and added a few more thoughts.
But anyway, what excited me about Pavement was the early sloppy noisey-but-melodic stuff. He's a lot cleaner now and technically "better" but it just isn't as interesting to me. No biggy.
He's still good and makes good records, but there's something kinda dull about the sounds -- maybe it's the production. Still, he will always come off with something out of nowhere, like the first few songs on FACE THE TRUTH, how they can change rather unexpectedly and be really addicting. He's still a good songwriter.
Oh, but I just can't sit through Terror Twilight.
