this is an opinion operation. one choice, so think long and hard.
pavement - i tried to listen to them for the first time today. oh my god. stretched out mellow into yellow clouds of shit. phil gramm must have meant them when he said whiny americans.

This was a thread a while back called "artists you just don't get" (or something like that).
If I recall, my answer then was Bob Dylan.

Good, I'm glad. Now I don't have to say Radiohead or Pearl Jam and get anybody uptight.

Did you listen to Slanted and Enchanted? Their highlight IMO.

I like solo Malkmus way more than Pavement.
And I'm probably alone.

don't hate me if this is their bible album, but i was listening to crooked rain, crooked rain.
I don't hate. Particularly just someone's opinion. They were all down hill after Summer Babe as far as I'm concerned. Ego's went up, quality went down.

The Velvet Underground
The Stooges
I also never got 95% of the DC hardcore scene, no matter how much I felt I was supposed to.
