On his third post-Pavement album, Stephen Malkmus recovers his youthful mien, seamlessly fusing his lanky, hammed-up guitar rock and the warm-hued air of "sunset nostalgia" it abets and a playful experimentation with electronic instrumentation.

Face the Truth is exactly the album many hoped Weezer’s Make Believe would be.

6 / 10

Stephen Malkmus's second post-Pavement venture, 2003's Pig Lib was a bit of a snoozer, to be kind.
