i've been meaning to check them out
there's a little indie band from london called 'let's wrestle' who say that pavement are their biggest influence for their lyrics (which are pretty silly really!)

they're quite amazing, i highly recommend the album "crooked rain, crooked rain" before anything else, it's definitely their most accessible. and my favorite. los campesinos! always talk about how much they love pavement. even though they weren't that popular when they were around they're now probably one of the most influential bands ever.
and yeah, lyrics in pavement songs are amazing. they're usually really witty or funny, and a lot of times make you think. but he sings them like they're nothing. best pavement line ever has to be in the song "gold soundz" after the instrumental part when he says "you're the kind of girl i like because you're empty, and i'm empty."
Scooter tbh o_O
