I had to look this up because someone said this cover was better than the original, obviously he/she was wrong.

lets be honest as much as i love los campesionos noone should even attempt to cover pavement

[upesupernova]

I hate it when people say "you shouldn't cover this/that band". I mean, no band is perfect, stop being so pretentious. I personally love this cover because it got me into Pavement.

Someone covering Pavement's "Frontwards." Great choice and good rendition. And I never been to Maxell's. I hear YLT play there a lot.

Sucks dude!!! pavement is the best ....this not do!!!

[MyNameIsKhodorkovsky]

The version on the EP is the perfect complement to the original Pavement song -- faster, sweeter, more fun, but losing a bit of Stephen Malkmus's wonderful disdain for everything.

This version doesn't have the quality of a studio production or the energy of actually being there live, so it's pretty much worthless. Brings back good memories though...

i know that originals are always better than the remakes or covers, but i think what they did to change it up was really good!

[cubbies4e]

This is a perfect song for them to cover.

Brilliant cover! I love LC! and I love Pavement, so a perfect combo!

[boxelder79]

no style and it's certainly not wasted.
