Crooked Rain is the second studio album by American indie rock band Pavement. The album, released on February 2, 1994, saw the band move on towards a more accessible rock sound than that of their more lo-fi debut Slanted and Enchanted and achieve moderate success with the single "Cut Your Hair".
Wedged in the center of the inimitable Slanted and Enchanted, “Zurich is Stained” plays like a one minute and 41 second chorus, not letting up until Malkmus croons his final “ba da da” refrain. Presumably about a European trek gone sour, the lyrics still leave ample ambiguity for the listener to insert their own meaning.
