Album Notes & Community Reviews

Continuing Robert Pollard's famously staggering output, this release leans heavily into the band's idiosyncratic, jagged art rock tendencies. While preserving their staple lo-fi power pop melodies, the album introduces slightly more complex, prog-influenced guitar work and abrupt structural shifts.
