Robert Pollard Is On a Roll

More often than not, I’m skeptical of Robert Pollard‘s work; he’s so prolific that I often wonder how he’d sound if he had a music editor in his studio.  That being said, his latest tracks are worthy of checking out, be it Ricked Wicky (still hate the name) or his new solo effort.  This latest single, just under Bob’s name, is a perfect piece of power-pop, free of the frivolous touches that often dissuade listeners. The song builds from the opening minute into this blissed out guitar pop with Pollard’s voice taking a great bit of focus.  His new album is titled Faulty Superheroes, and it’s due in late April; I think I’ll reserve some funds to pick this one up.
