Slanted and Enchanted is the debut studio album by American indie rock band Pavement, released in April 1992 on Matador Records. The album was distributed to critics as early as 1991, months before its official release; the original distribution did not feature the entire band as several members joined during its production.The recording sessions were split between South Makepeace Studios in Brooklyn, New York (recorded December 24, 1990) and Louder Than You Think Studios in Stockton, CA (recorded January 13–20, 1991). It was said that Gary Young's drumming was so shaky that Bob Nastanovich kept time for him, in addition to working as tour manager. In 2003, the album was ranked number 134 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. The album's name is taken from the title of a cartoon made by Silver Jews frontman David Berman.
