Pavement's reunion run in 2021 reminded a generation exactly why Stephen Malkmus and company mattered so much in the first place, and the documentary that followed treated the band's mythology with the kind of playful self-awareness their catalog always demanded. The Slanted! Enchanted! musical alone says everything about how Pavement occupies a rare space in indie rock, inspiring devotion sincere enough to be satirized and celebrated simultaneously. Matador Records capitalizes on the sweeping success of box office smash PAVEMENTS with the physical release of the iconic meta-documentary's original soundtrack. Compiled by PAVEMENTS producer/editor Robert Greene and the band, the soundtrack ropes together disparate elements of the film - dialogue snippets, scenes from the fake Oscar-bait biopic Range Life, and cast recordings from the Slanted! Enchanted! Jukebox musical as well as live and rehearsal recordings from the group's 2021 reunion tour and the never-before-released cover of Jim Pepper's song "Witchitai-To." The full-band performances were mixed by Bryce Goggin, who worked on Pavement classics 'Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain,' 'Wowee Zowee,' and 'Brighten the Corners.' Tracklist Disc 1 1.
