ReviewsRanked #16 in AP's list of the `Top 99 Of '85-'95' - "...represents the first movement from grunge to slackerdom....The guitars mutate, the melodies shift and turn into half-hearted harmonies and everything is pulled together by an ever-building messy momentum and the most perfect sense of vocal phrasing and timing since Lou Reed...", Included in Rolling Stone's "Essential Recordings of the 90's.", Highly Recommended-"...Pavement Makes Things Happen Where Nothing Happened Before...", "...brimming with beautiful pop songs....Simultaneously sophisticated and unpretentious, heartfelt and totally goofy....brilliant..." - Rating: A-, Ranked #1 in Spin's list of the `20 Best Albums Of The Year' - "...so rich in melliflluous melodies, elliptical lyrics and thrilling, avant guitar-pop seductions that it renders any and all competition meaningless...", "...The Luxe & Reduxe Edition Expands S&E with a Feast for Initiates...", "...Pavement's sound has been perfected on its first LP, already a contender for album of the year....The melodies are much more interesting than most rock out there....Pavement has brought dissonance into the realm of hooks...", Ranked #5 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s.", "SLANTED wins on raw brilliance alone....The debut offers an exhilarating glimpse of greatness to come.", Included in Q's List of the `50 Best Albums of 1992.', "...As fresh as next week's sushi...a masterpiece of contradictions...rarely matched before or since." - Rating: A, Ranked #2 in the Village Voice's List of the `40 Best Albums of 1992.', "The lyrics fill the air as well, enigmatic and fresh, stuff about making mistakes, catching angels, listening to the radio, and waiting for your dreams to come shuffling over the horizon, waiting in a sunlight that blisters the soul.", Ranked #3 in Rolling Stone's list of 2002's "10 Best Reissues" - "...Bite-size pieces of dada, rock candy cut into hard angles and fish-hook curves...", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...stands out through sheer breadth of influence and innate accessibility....they play expertly...", "'Summer Babe' is grungy and lo-fi, but not inscrutable. Pavement isn’t’ being too experimental, but the sound still feels fresh, even now.", "...Pavement's Idyllic Indie-Rock Masterpiece...", 5 Stars Out of 5-"...It Still Sounds Magnificent..."
