The Urban Lounge (241 S. 500 East)
During the ’90s, Pavement was the band all the cool kids liked.
Some regard them as the forefathers of the indie-rock movement largely because of the success they had as a band 8212;without the help of a major label. After the band broke up in 2000, guitarist Stephen Malkmus embarked on an impressive solo career and has since released four albums.
His newest album with The Jicks, titled Real Emotional Trash, was released in May, and it’s full of the fuzzy guitar riffs and vocal hooks that put Malkmus on the map in the first place.
