Robert Pollard has called the epic 2011 double-LP 'Let It Beard' "a subconscious concept album about the sorry state of rock 'n' roll".
A 75-minute thrill ride through the many forms Pollard has mastered in his three-plus decades of writing and recording, it's "the White Album meets Quadrophenia meets Jesus Christ Superstar", in his words. 'Let It Beard' features strings, horns, keyboards, a female soul singer and guest turns from such luminaries as Colin Newman from Wire, J Mascis from Dinosaur Jr, Steve Wynn from the Dream Syndicate, Mick Collins from The Dirtbombs, Dave Rick from Phantom Tollbooth and Mitch Mitchell from Guided By Voices.
