Nigel Godrich and Pavement? A match made in music heaven by the gods? One would think so. The album starts of on a great foot with 'Spit On A Stranger' and has a series of sparkles and flurries with 'Cream Of Gold', 'Major Leagues', and 'Platform Blues'... but for some reason, overall, the album sounds worn or used and not in a comfortable way. It almost seems like the band had nothing left to say leaving many tracks flat and uninspiring. I've been wrong about almost everything before and maybe I am just not appreciating this release or maybe I am expecting too much from Nigel and one of my favourite bands... still glad to have it though.

8 out of 10
