I’m doing with it what I do with all my Robert Pollard albums: using it as fodder for the ever-burgeoning “Best of Pollard” playlist I’ve been making ever since Guided By Voices split the first time. I expect to do the same with the follow-up GBV album reportedly due later this year, and with whatever else Pollard chooses to put out in 2012, and beyond.

Robert Pollard in (self) exile: 16 great songs from a lost decade | Music | For Our Consideration | The A.V. Club

The fine people at The AV Club put together a little primer for folks who checked out on Robert Pollard when GBV broke up. I spent the morning listening to it, and while I can’t object to any of the author’s choices, any attempt to pare down Pollard’s intimidating discography cuts away “Love Is Stronger Than Witchcraft” at his own peril.
