'Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain'

What's so wrong about making music that's listenable. Don't get me wrong, I've always liked Pavement and "Slanted and Enchanted's" great. But is it so bad to want to shy away from music that is largely unpopular because it is so dissonant and embrace something more digestable?

If you had to make a boxset of the most essential records from the 1990s, "Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain" would simply need to be included.

It's noisy and nonsensical without losing even the most wimpy of music ears.
