Brighten the Corners is the fourth studio album by American indie rock band Pavement, released on January 18, 1997. The album marked a departure from the raw, lo-fi sound of the band's earlier work, showcasing a more polished production while still retaining their signature jangly guitars and cryptic lyrics. The album's themes explore disillusionment and the complexities of everyday life, resonating with both critics and fans. It has since been regarded as one of the defining albums of the 1990s indie rock movement and has influenced countless musicians in the years since its release.
