"Chances are that u won't hear another band like this again. Their problem was that they werent mainstreem enough and were overshadowed by the release of nevermind...nevermind, this rocks"
"I love pavement, I love their 'I don't give a damn' attitude which is evident without them screaming the house down, this and crooked rain is their best work"
"It is a crime that this band are so often overlooked. I have never, besides REM and the Smiths, been so uplifted by such miserable lyrics. Brilliant. Chk out 'Lord Kill the Pain'"
"Great collection of songs, You'll remember the cheesy 'Mrs Robinson' from the charts but see past that and the short running time (approx 30 mins) and u will b rewarded"
"Chose this because it is situated in between 'Gish' and 'Mellon Colie' discographically and musically. It is also my fave which i believe to b superior. Classic"
"So often in the shadow of it's predecessor. This is a groundbreaking record. Due to Albini's magic it is nothing like nevermind, which is good. Many say this was Curt's attempt at doing the pixies"
"Easily their best work. Yes they miss the beautiful vocal's of Shara Nelson or Tracy Thorn but that allows them to experiment further-a-field. Great stuff"
"I guarentee u will have heard most of these joints without ever realising it. This is because they are so touching, delicate, & moving. Used many times on various documentaries and films of all genre"
"The so called innovator of 'industrial' music but I dont care about journalist talk. Call it what u like...this is essential and worthy of the late great J.Cash nicking one of its songs, 'hurt'"
"You wont find Oasis in this list I'm afraid as these boys come before them any day. The verve do not get enough acclaim. This album is the most perfect send off for any great band"
"Being a young lad when the pulp were at their height of popularity...I didnt realise how brill the WHOLE album was. Great singles with great lyrics and textured format. Faultless for the times"
"Loved what they did before but this is their greatest statement. Even tho its got firestarter on it..the most overplayed and misused dance tune of all time I still not sick of it."
"This is possibly the album of the 90's. It was so important because it made Metal mainstreem without losing its edge...how did they do that? Clever i guess."
