Ok, so shortly after bitching about how few GBV songs I've gotten to write about thus far in the project, this will be the second of three that have come this month.
The true genius of Bob Pollard is in his ability to capture great little moments from the canon of rock music and make an entire song out of them. Granted this can lead to some horrible frustrations, or the feeling that Pollard could have done more with his little gems...but few songs capture this more than "Alright".
Pollard seems to have said "you know that bit at the end of your random arena rock song that makes people wave their lighters in the air and sing along? What if that bit was THE WHOLE SONG!"
Genius I tell ya.
