Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain (Top 500 Countdown Update)

It's an odd album for me. It has its moments, but it seems to drag on and on. After a while I just wanted them to lift off the noise and get down to the songs. For me the noise doesn't add to their sound but detracts from it. Don't get me wrong I get it that's their thing, well it ain't working for me.
