Hey Greg,
Remember when you wrote this? http://www.lajerga.com/saltforslugs/columns/slugmusicghij.html#guidedbyvoices Guided By Voices Do The Collapse TVT
Bob Pollard leaves his lo-fi ramblings behind and dives headfirst into full scale production values courtesy of Ric Ocasek (yes, the dude from the Cars). Unfortunately, Ocasek's fingerprints are all over this, leaving Pollard's talents to be buried in the mix. I really, really like Guided By Voices, but I must confess that this record just doesn't do it for me. Go back to the garage Bob; go back to your four track; and by all means, go back to Tobin Sprout, Mitch Mitchell and your brother. Rumor has it too, that if this record doesn't blow up, he will return to his basement and beer-soaked lo-fi pop. For that fact alone, I want this record to be a flop and I'm endorsing accordingly as junk. Slop. Shit. (greg e. boy)
I put the SFS website back including all your music reviews.
