Quarantine The Past: The Best Of Pavement comes out on Domino on Monday the 8^th of March 2010. This fully re-mastered 23-track compilation will be available on double LP, CD and digital album formats. The tracks span the entirety of Pavement's career from 1989 to 1999, and will include an eclectic selection of tracks. I can't tell you what that is however, as a 'Guess The Tracklisting" competition has been set up at   http://www.matadorrecords.com/matablog/2010/01/05/pavement-quarantine-the-past/.

The album contains 23 tracks, all previously released, and the first track is Gold Soundz.

FIRST PRIZE for the track listing closest to the actual track listing will receive two tickets including accomodation and flights for the Pavement at Central Park Summerstage show on Tuesday, September 21, 2010.

SECOND PRIZE goes to the most imaginatve tracklisting and the winner will have that tracklisting pressed up as a limited edition double LP in time for Record Store Day on April 17th. 

FOUR RUNNERS-UP in either of the above two categories will be awarded complete sets of Pavement 12" vinyl. Deadline for entries is TUESDAY, JANUARY 19.

Quarantine The Past lands in stores as Pavement embark on their first live appearances since late 1999. Dates begin in New Zealand on March 1 and continue through Australia, UK and Europe over the spring and summer, with 4 dates at London’s Brixton Academy in May and the band curating and performing at All Tomorrow’s Parties.
