Albums

(Note: Even though Pig Lib is the only album that titularly recognizes the Jicks by listing the artist name as "Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks," the self-titled album Stephen Malkmus is, in fact, a Jicks recording. Initially, Malkmus wanted to simply call his post-Pavement band the Jicks with no mention of his name, but Matador records resisted the idea and released the new album from SM as Stephen Malkmus with no mention of the Jicks. Face the Truth is technically Stephen Malkmus's only true solo affair, though the Jicks do provide instrumentation on nearly every song.)
