Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released as his second official solo record completely independent from the Guided by Voices moniker, the immensely prolific songwriter returns to the hissy, fragmented charm of his four-track origins. The brief, lo-fi sketches burst with his trademark surreal wordplay and undeniable, melancholic pop hooks.
