Reunion-mania seemed to finally peak in 2010, when after over a decade apart influential indie-rock band Pavement regrouped for a highly successful, lengthy world tour. After spending the majority of last year on the road with his former band mates, Stephen Malkmus will release his fifth solo album, Mirror Traffic, with his longtime band The Jicks. Produced by Beck, the 12-track album will be released via Matador on August 23. The band has announced that they will hit the road for a 20-date fall tour that kicks off on September 20 at the Majestic Theater in Detroit, MI with notable stops at New York’s Terminal 5 on on the 26th and a hometown gig at Portland’s Crystal Ballroom on October 13.
