What type of music do both God Lives Underwater and Pavement bands perform?
Pavement (band) Pavement was an American indie rock band that formed in Stockton, California in 1989. The group mainly consisted of Stephen Malkmus (vocals and guitar), Scott Kannberg (guitar and vocals), Mark Ibold (bass), Steve West (drums) and Bob Nastanovich (percussion and vocals). Initially conceived as a recording project, the band at first avoided press or live performances, while attracting considerable underground attention with their early releases. Gradually evolving into a more polished band, Pavement recorded five full-length albums and nine EPs over the course of their decade-long career, though they disbanded with some acrimony in 1999 as the members moved on to other projects. In 2010, they undertook a well-received reunion tour.
Godspeed the Static Godspeed the Static is a vinyl-only album by Trumans Water. It was released in 1993 by Drunken Fish Records and is the first in a series of three "Godspeed" albums, all featuring improvised music. (The other improvised albums are "Godspeed the Vortex" and "Godspeed the Hemorrhage"; "Godspeed the Punchline" contains full-blown, studio-recorded songs.) The first pressing of this album came in hand-painted, unique covers. It was described by Stewart Mason of Allmusic as "Trumans Water at their loosest and most formless".
