RE:SCORE - Guided By Voices: Box (1995)

TOTAL SCORE: 163, AVG: 2.26

Updating the entry for Box can now happen since I've updated the scoring for all its contents: Devil Between My Toes, Sandbox, Self-Inflicted Aerial Nostalgia, Same Place the Fly Got Smashed, and the compilation album King Shit and the Golden Boys....
