GUIDED BY VOICES - Half Smiles of the Decomposed LP (colour vinyl) art punk so there in lie´s the2019 reissue on Translucent Red vinyl. The final GBV album in their first life before several years of myriad of solo projects prior to their return in 2010. As a result the album always had an air of finality about it particularly in closer "Huffman Prairie Flying Field' but it's full of their usual razor sharp riffs and pop classic melodies particularly the effortless power pop of "Girls of Wild Strawberry". If you like GBV, you'll need this.
