I couldn't describe the beauty of this album. Everything is in its place, everything fits perfectly: the rock matrix, the electronics, the classical instruments, even the hip-hop elements. But what really matters to me are the emotions it conveys, and in this regard, there couldn't be a better review.

Bitch Magnet Umber

Madonna's disco, yes. This story of Grubbs in Bitch Magnet is a legend: not only was he not the founder (as the review seems to imply), but he was never even a member, and he didn't play on this album at all (at least, that's what the album credits indicate). He only participated in the third album on a couple of tracks, credited under a pseudonym, and I believe he also did a tour. Moreover, even Ondarock in their review of this album falls into this misunderstanding (only to then state the opposite in the monograph).

I don’t know why I never commented on this page back then. Like you, this album makes my knees tremble. Barzin is an artist I feel particularly connected to, who touches me in ways that few others do. His subsequent work is worth a listen as well.

Alessio is right about the fascinating. Compared to their previous work, it lacks compactness, conciseness, and a bit of freshness; the lo-fi approach gives way to more polished, "produced" sounds, but without betraying the band's mischievous attitude by even a millimeter. Every now and then, the album gets a bit tangled, it clogs up, alternating highs and lows, but what highs! This album, with its many strengths and its flaws, is a kaleidoscope, a summary of the Pavement sound, and it is almost certainly also their least accessible work. Pop, yes, as the reviewer rightly says, but always absolutely skewed, far from being radio-friendly. It is, indeed, the exact opposite of what was expected from them at the time.

I'm pleased to note that human cases of DeB still exist!

These crazy ones certainly deserve a listen. I heard the album back in the (past) days of my review of their second, Heavy Petting, I only remember that I preferred the latter.

Bartle ❤️ I saw they released a live recording of dunajam 2007. Do you know anything about it? I suspect it could be worth it.

Wow, I happened to revisit deb almost by chance after ages and I find you Canterbury in hp, and with a nice page too, worthy of the good old times. So there's still life then, great!
