21. Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks


21. Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks - Wig Out At JagBags

This band formed out of the ashes of notorious band, Pavement. Stephen Malkmus was, of course, the lead singer of Pavement. The Jicks are Joanna Bolme, Mike Clark, Jake Morris. This is their sixth album and while you can certainly hear old Pavement in there, the 60's psychedelia is what attracted me to this album. There are several Grateful Dead references in the album and I think a couple songs certainly bear this influence. This is a really fun album to listen to and may be my favorite of theirs. They are based out of Portland, Oregon.
