I didn't even know this Pavement seven inch existed until I randomly found it in a used bin a few weeks ago. Their song here, titled "Dancing with the Elders" is an early version of "We Dance" from "Wowee Zowee." They're about 80% the same, some minor tweaks to the pace and lyric delivery being the differences. If you're a Pavement completist, probably worth getting - won't cost you much anyways.
As for the b-side, "Chemical" by Medusa Cyclone, I had never heard of them before buying this. Kind of had that dark, noisy AmRep vibe, but not nearly as distorted or angry as most of their acts back in the early-to-mid-nineties. If I happened upon more by them in a bargain bin I'd probably pick it up just to see what's going on.
