ReviewsRanked #17 in Nme's List of the `Top 50 Albums of 1994.', "Most bands would give their career to write any of these slacker anthems - and now it's even better.", "...at heart, CROOKED RAIN is an album that celebrates and denigrates itself....an album largely about the plight of rock bands that, like Pavement, are poised between critical and popular success....", "...Like R.E.M., whose taste for romantic melodicism and lyrical obscurity they equal if not exceed, and Sonic Youth, whose love of noise and the underground that nurtures it they share, Pavement are American originals..." - Rating: A, Ranked #56 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "The band employs a greater attention to detail to seamlessly blend the songs...", Included in Rolling Stone's The 10 Best Reissues & Anthologies Of 2004 - "Twelve songs of stumbling majesty, cutting jangle and instinctive perfection.", "It Remains the Defining Statement from the Kings of Indie Rock.", 5 Stars Out of 5-"Superbly Crafted Rock That only Seemed Splayed at the Edges.", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...an album that's darker and more beguiling than their heralded previous efforts....CROOKED RAIN's clean production and insidiously catchy melodies hardly signify that Pavement have sold out--if anything, their vision is more warped and caustic than before....", 4 Stars Out of 5-"It Glowed with Balmy West Coast Harmonies and Summery Pop Licks.", "This album represents frontman Steve Malkmus's high-water mark as a snarky color commentator on plastic pop culture." - Grade: A-, "It now stands as not just Pavement's best record, but probably the single greatest indie-rock record ever made." - Grade: A+, 8 (Out of 10) -"...Another Set Of Giant Steps, without a Doubt...", Ranked #13 in Spin's list of the `20 Best Albums Of The Year' - "...magic....New York punk with extra bend...", Included on Neil Strauss' list of the Top 10 Albums Of '94 - "...CROOKED RAIN has so many twists, turns, allusions and contradictions that it deserves its own set of Cliff Notes.", "It Was Here That Their Freewheeling, Tangential, Hipster Approach to Rock Came Into Sharper Focus.", Ranked #62 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s.", 4 stars out of 5 - "The band hits a golden seam of song that feels as wide open and free as the Pacific Interstate.", Ranked #2 in the Village Voice's 1994 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll., "...So good they named it twice....Pavement invent and invert and kick ass and kick the brow of greatness...."
