Yeah, he's alright. Good guitar player. Always thought Pig Lib was a pretty cool album, listened to that one a lot back in the day. Most of his solo stuff reminds me of the weaker Pavement material, which isn't bad, just not something I find myself wanting to pull out very often. He'll always have good melodies and creative song structures. That song on PIG LIB "Dark Wave "or whatever is probably my favorite song he's ever done, period. Also "1% of 1". His s/t album wasn't to my liking, but REAL EMOTIONAL and FACE THE are both good little albums.
I like him just fine, great melodies, just doesn't get me excited unlike early Pavement which I think is some of the best music ever made.
