Pavement, one of the most influential indie rock bands of the ‘90s, will reunite.

The band’s label, Matador Records, announced the reunion Thursday, confirming long-rumored plans. Pavement will reconvene for a tour -- and only a tour -- to begin Sept. 21, 2010, at Rumsey Playfield in New York’s Central Park.

Though not hugely commercially successful, the California-based band is widely credited for its influential low-fidelity sound and ramshackle artistry. Pavement broke up in 2000.
