MP3: Pavement – “Gold Soundz” from Quarantine The Past: The Best Of Pavement, due March 9 on Matador. Originally from 1994’s Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain.

Matador is holding a Guess The Track Listing Contest where if you guess all 23 tracks correctly, you can win stuff like tickets and records. Can you feel that slacker revival bubbling under? I think a girl just tried to show me Madonna’s pap smear…
