Pavement announce best-of compilation, Hecklers Choice: Big Gums and Heavy Lifters

Matador Records will release Hecklers Choice: Big Gums and Heavy Lifters, Pavement’s second best-of compilation, which comes are Quarantine the Past was released in 2010. The release features songs such as "Shady Lane", "Harness Your Hopes", "Range Life", and "Spit On A Stranger".

Compiled by PAVEMENTS producer/editor Robert Greene and the band, the soundtrack ropes together disparate elements of the film – dialogue snippets, scenes from the fake Oscar-bait biopic Range Life, and cast recordings from the Slanted! Enchanted! jukebox musical as well as live and rehearsal recordings from the group’s 2021 reunion tour. The full-band performances were mixed by Bryce Goggin, who worked on Pavement classics Crooked Rain Crooked Rain, Wowee Zowee, and Brighten the Corners.
