Teenage Guitar - More Lies From The Gooseberry Bush

Originally released in 2014, More Lies From the Gooseberry Bush is the second album by Robert Pollard of Guided By Voices' gloriously unkempt lo-fi solo project, Teenage Guitar. 
 
An album overflowing with brilliant, noisy, breathlessly discordant pop wonder, it's all of a piece, and that piece adds up to a sense of urgency and what sounds an awful lot like unconstrained joy suffusing every single track - the whole thing sounding like it could all fall apart at any moment were it not being held together by the expertise of a songwriter of Pollard's understated talent. 
 
This release is also complete with a bonus disc containing the full 2013 self-released album Force Fields At Home.
