Pavement Won't Be Recording Any New Material

October 13, 2009
Pavement Won't Be Recording Any New MaterialBad news for Pavement fans, the band say they won't be recording any new material when they reform next year.

The cult indie band have confirmed two dates for next year, in New York in September and at their self-curated ATP in Minehead in May, but it's unlikely any new songs will be aired.

When asked if Pavement plan to hit the studio, Bob Nastanovich from the group monosyllabically said “No.”

Thankfully he was more talkative about the band's split, telling The Quietus: “We quit in 1999 because we were exhausted, didn't know what direction to go in and Stephen wanted to do something else.

“We might as well reunite. And did it take a lot of prolongued dialogue and intense meetings fueled by whisky drinking?

“No, our longtime U.S. booking agent Boche had dinner with Stephen in Chicago this Summer and they agreed to work on Pavement in 2010. The rest of us have always been willing.”
