More time away from Guided by Voices and increased attention to his solo work has inarguably helped Robert Pollard refine his status as a pop songwriter extraordinaire. Comparable to Paul Westerberg's simultaneous exodus from the Replacements, Pollard's The Crawling Distance is mature and moving, even if it's still fundamentally DIY with all the lo-fi trappings. "It's Easy" lends his weary rasp to a layered acoustic production that has the minimal psychedelic appeal of a Beatles classic like "Across the Universe." But opener "Faking My Harlequin" and "Silence Be Destroyed" still rely on the pulse of a rollicking rhythm section and his trademark transcendent choruses. As usual, there's little filler here, despite Pollard's continuing, and welcome, prolific output. ~ Kenneth Herzog
