It's 25 years since the band released their third album

Pavement are releasing a special 7" vinyl picture disc to mark the 25th anniversary of their album, Wowee Zowee.

The 7" is cut into the shape of a speech bubble, and features 'Sensitive Euro Man' on the A-side and 'Brink of the Clouds/Candylad' on the B-side. All three tracks were originally included on the 2006 CD Wowee Zowee: Sordid Sentinels, but are making their first appearance on vinyl for this release. You can hear 'Sensitive Euro Man' above.

Pavement are due to reunite this summer for an appearance at Primavera Sound in Barcelona. The festival was recently rescheduled from its original early June date to August 26-30 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
