Perfect Sound Forever: The Story of Pavement

From their inception as a distorted lo-fi pop duo out of Stockton, California, to their mid-career re- incarnation as a five-piece slumberpop beauty machine, Pavement were a leading force in the indie art-rock music scene of the late 1990s. Perfect Sound Forever is British music journalist Rob Jovanovic's engaging profile of the band and their quirkily dark, melodic sound and cryptic, mirth- filled lyrics. Lavishly illustrated and presented in resplendent two-color, Perfect Sound Forever is the only book to be written with full co-operation of all the band members. Original, eccentric, consistently tagged "Noise-rock's premier sing-along band" -- Pavement refused to offer a coherent blueprint for success. In Perfect Sound Forever Rob Jovanovic immerses himself in this glorious confusion, bringing together the stories of the people who were there as it happened. An absolute must for any Pavement fan.
