Got myself Robert Pollard's new album From a Compound Eye. It is his first since the break-up of Guided By Voices. If you don't like GBV you will hate this album. I've always preferred the GBV albums to Pollard's many many side projects, but Compound Eye could almost be a GBV album. Not as cohesive as Speak Kindly of Your Volunteer Fire Department the Pollard and Gillard collaboration that is my all time favorite, and much more satisfying than recent Pollard misses (the first Circus Devils album and his Fiction Man solo). Looking forward to hearing Music For Bubble EP. Pollard's compilation for the film Bubble. Also need to check out Zoom! It Happens All Over the World EP.
