Our Take

Guided By Voices have returned with their latest album, "Alex Bell / Focus On The Flock." This album is a true testament to their iconic lo-fi sound, with tracks that feel like they were recorded in a basement on a rainy day.

The album kicks off with the fuzzy and infectious "Alex Bell," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Lead singer Robert Pollard's vocals are as enigmatic as ever, weaving in and out of the lo-fi instrumentation with ease.

"Focus On The Flock" takes things in a slightly different direction, with a more straightforward rock sound that still maintains that signature Guided By Voices charm. The track features some killer guitar riffs and a chorus that will have you singing along in no time.

Overall, "Alex Bell / Focus On The Flock" is a solid addition to Guided By Voices' extensive discography. While it may not break new ground for the band, it's a reminder of why they have remained one of indie rock's most beloved acts for decades. So put on your favorite thrift store sweater, grab a PBR, and bask in the nostalgic glory of Guided By Voices. It may not be groundbreaking, but it's damn good fun.
