Regardless of the inevitable fact that those first five albums would mean far more to the '90's, than the last four have meant to the aughts, Malkmus has consistently churned out his unique brand of thought-rock to the glee of some and the trepidation of others (critics in particular, who potentially found themselves review Malkmus' solo works too early in the grieving process).
