Extremely
prolific and very fine rock group from
Dayton, Ohio. Fronted by the
far too cool for his own good Bob Pollard.
Released 12 albums and counting, not including the countless related solo albums and multitudes of EPs and singles.
Used to favour lo-fi sounds but now hang around with big-time producers like Ric Ocasek.
Recommended albums: Bee Thousand, Alien Lanes, Vampire On Titus. But you can't go too wrong with any of them.
Update: 2001 album Isolation Drills, produced by Rob Schnapf, is among GbV's best.
