Press reviews at the time were mixed, and a lot of pavement fans were disappointed.
It possessed none of the key virtues of their first two fulllengths.
Slanted and enchanted , like the singles that preceded it, was unfocused but filled with mystery, a cloudy shape outlining a great band in the process of becoming.
And cr, cr was clear and direct, bursting with melody, the sound of vast potential and supreme confidence fully realized.
But wowee zowee was scattered, jokey, maybe even trivial; the band had tipped its hand and some were seeing a bluff.
But further listens and passing time improved the sound of wowee zowee.
He found one, at any rate, and it all centered on his guitar.
The best songs on wowee zowee are slower and more meandering than what came before, and only give a passing glance to things like chorus, bridge, or meaning.
As far as the latter, malkmus was obviously picking words mostly by how they sounded, which by and large worked out great.
Their final two records would contain only fleshedout songs and are accordingly less favored by fans.
As with the reissues of their first two records, this edition of wowee zowee comes with nonalbum bsides rounding out the first disc, and a second cd of outtakes, radio shots, live songs, and compilation tracks.
Disc 2 is a tougher slog.
Rocks compilation reveals pavement as the primo interpreters of generation x arcana, making the educational cartoon song sound like something the band wrote, thick with a playful sense of nostalgia.
