| The difference between a Robert Pollard release and a Guided By Voices release is not exactly clear. Both records often contain the same cast of folks playing the role of the backing band. Both feature Pollard's heaven-sent sense of melody coupled with power-mad Brit-flavored rock action. Both come in lo-fi mode or hi-fi glory. Either which way, the listener wins. Pollard's ceaseless skill for songcraft and success ratio in the war of genius vs. crap is truly something to shake a stick at.
