As far as I'm concerned, this is a tough battle, but I'll vote with my heart.

It was a tie between Nasty and Ibold. So I went with the cuter of the two :)

I went with Young.

Also, any poll would find this to be true: Preston School of Industry's "All This Sounds Gas" is better than anything by SM and the Jicks.

I hope I don't come across as a jerk when I say this because I don't mean to, but before I discovered this message board, I honestly had no idea anybody still cared about Pavement.





So what's the story with these new-fangled compact disc things I've been hearing the young folks talk so much about?
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

Sometimes we need a break from the Cake - Pie wars.

If you pull a gun on Stephen Malkmus, you become my favorite Pavementeer.

Couldn't have kept that to yourself, huh?

I still love Pavement.

But Malkmus on his own? Feh.

Gotta go with Young.

I don't think Malkmus has put out an awful solo record. None of them have been great but there's always a few redeeming songs on each one.

steven west!!! Because he's a good drummer (matches Pavement's sarcastic tones) and I liked what he did with the Silver Jews afterwards.

Young. He really had no idea why he was there and what was going on.
