RE:SCORE - Guided By Voices: Clown Prince of the Menthol Trailer (1994)

TOTAL SCORE: 14, AVG: 2.00

I stand by my original review in that Clown Prince of the Menthol Trailer isn't a great EP. Listening to it again while putting together this re:score I was somewhat hoping that something new would emerge, but alas, there is still nothing here that truly stands out. Matter Eater Lad is still a lot of fun, and Johnny Appleseed is a solid ballad, but outside of those I'm not a huge fan...

Of course this EP is someone's favorite, and the responses to my original post proved that was the case. Oh well, there is more than enough GBV to go around! Here is the updated ranking:

Among Bob's Best
-- none

Gems

-- none

Almost Gems

-- none

They're Good

01 Matter Eater Lad

07 Johnny Appleseed

They're OK

02 Broadcaster House

04 Pink Gun

06 Grandfather Westinghouse

Could Live Without

03 Hunter Complex

05 Scalping the Guru

Toss-Offs & Throwaways
-- none

Given the scoring above, the album would get 14 points total (and an average of 2.00).
