In 2020 Pavement fans are getting excited about the band's reunion tour, but frontman Stephen Malkmus seems rather disinterested in rehashes (not that we're suggesting he's not up for the band's new dates). As his own album shows; the latest in a growing oeuvre of varied curveballs betraying a broad taste in music and a similar scope in terms of talent.
'Sparkle Hard' was his 2018 LP that explored downtempo nuances via strings and vocal effects. 2019's 'Groove Denied' celebrated proto-electronics and post-punk, making anyone with even a passing interest in bands like The Units want to sit down with the maestro and pick his brains. By contrast, 'Traditional Techniques' is a full-blown, or rather subtly proud folk album in the truest sense. Aided by Decemberists guitarist Chris Funk, Matt Sweeney of Chavez note and Afghan aficionado Qais Essar, it's further proof that Malkmus has depths previously unexplored.
