Pavement are currently plotting a highly anticipated, nearly sold-out reunion tour this summer, which is finally happening after their two-show 2020 return was canceled. Before they hit the road in June, though, Pavement have something special in store for fans who weren’t able to secure tickets to their tour: The veteran indie rockers are reissuing their 1999 album Twilight Terror in a really big way.
Pavement, along with their label Matador, has unveiled details for their massive Twilight Terror: Farewell Horizontal deluxe release, a 45-track effort that features 28 unreleased songs. It is compiled with remastered originals, B-sides, home demos, rehearsal tapes, era-appropriate live recordings, and even the rough tracks from Pavement’s session at Sonic Youth’s Echo Canyon studio. To celebrate the exciting announcement, the band also shared one of the previously unheard tracks, “Be The Hook,” which is now available on streaming platforms.
