“But it’s hard to avoid the point that 90′s Oasis shat on 90% of everyone else’s music.” People hold such opinions? *weeps*

Comment on The Wussification of Indie Rock (it’s all Pavement’s fault) by buddyroe

I totally agree. I bought “Slanted and Enchanted” without hearing a single song, just because Pavement was the holy grail for indie music critics. In fact, it was considered very uncool to not consider Pavement cool. After “Slanted,” and several other Pavement albums I purchased, I never figured out why they were considered so untouchable in Indie music. I think they were the most overrated band of the 1990s. Just maybe, no as a matter of fact, the indie music wasn’t really that good, or radio stations would still be playing Pavement today instead of Nirvana and Pearl Jam.

That’s a gorgeous review. Don’t you fucking dare give up ! The new track is marinating my heart. I adore Dexys and your writing about “Don’t Stand Me Down” pointed me towards that record years ago and I shall be forever indebted.

I think the real point is that it seems absolutely ludicrous to assign qualitative reviews to what is largely a subjective art form.
