Pavement return to the compilation format with Hecklers Choice, released by Matador. More than a decade on from 2010’s Quarantine the Past, this collection reshuffles the deck, pulling in both the canonical indie rock classics and the late-blooming favourites that found new life in the streaming age. It’s all here: the wry slacker wit of Cut Your Hair, the hazy beauty of Gold Soundz, the jangling melancholy of Shady Lane, alongside Harness Your Hopes - a once-obscure B-side that’s since gone global thanks to algorithmic afterlives. Hecklers Choice balances cult staples with modern rediscoveries, capturing the band’s enduring ability to connect across generations.
