Pavement to release first new song in over two decades for documentary, Pavements

"Pavements, a prismatic, narrative, scripted, documentary, musical, metatextual hybrid, is an examination of the iconic 90s indie band Pavement," reads a statement on the film. "The film intimately shows the band preparing for their sold-out 2022 reunion tour while simultaneously tracking the preparations for a musical based on their songs, a museum devoted to their history and a big-budget Hollywood biopic inspired by their saga as the most important band of a generation"

In an interview with the Kreative Kontrol podcast, Pavement’s Scott ‘Spiral Stairs’ Kannberg revealed that a new song will be featured in the documentary film. “There will be a new Pavement song on the soundtrack, that’s all I’m going to give you,” he explained. “I just heard a mix of it today, and it’s pretty good. It’s not a big deal, it’s just cool because it’s something different and it’s a song that we all kind of loved playing.”
