Well you greet the tokens and stamps
Beneath the fake-oil burnin' lamps
In the city we forgot to name
The concourse is four-wheeled shame
And the courthouse's double-breast
I'd like to check out your public protests
Why you're complaining ta!
You sleep with electric guitars
Range rovin' with the cinema stars
And I wouldn't want to shake their hands
'cause they're in such a high-protein land
Because there's 40 different shades of black
So many fortresses and ways to attack
So why you complaining? ta!
Pavement è un gruppo musicale indie rock statunitense formatosi a Stockton, in California, nel 1989. Considerati uno dei gruppi più influenti del movimento indie rock degli anni '90, Pavement ha raggiunto una vasta fanbase grazie al loro sound caratterizzato da riff melodici, testi ironici e sperimentali e un'atmosfera rilassata e disinvolta. Il gruppo è composto da Stephen Malkmus (voce, chitarra), Scott Kannberg (chitarra), Mark Ibold (basso), Bob Nastanovich (percussioni) e Gary Young (batteria). Tra i loro album più importanti figurano "Slanted and Enchanted" (1992), considerato un classico del genere indie rock, e "Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain" (1994), che ha consolidato il successo della band. Altri album di rilievo includono "Wowee Zowee" (1995) e "Brighten the Corners" (1997). Pavement si è sciolto nel 1999 ma si è riunito per alcuni concerti negli anni successivi, incluso un tour mondiale nel 2010. Il loro impatto sulla musica indie rock è ancora oggi evidente, con numerosi artisti che citano Pavement come fonte di ispirazione.
