310. Guided by Voices

They may not be responsible for the Lo-Fi movement (though some they were), Guided by Voices were the preeminent Lo-Fi band of the 90’s. Their main Lo-Fi works had the dual attack of being both strange and catchy which is no easy musical feat. Though primarily in the indie ranks, it is possible that their heavy output of music could work in the favor but the odds are solidly against them despite how much more quality material they put out.

Robert Pollard

The leader of the influential Lo-Fi group, Guided by Voices, Robert Pollard struck out on his own and developed a much acclaimed musical catalogue on his own. There are many who praise Pollard as a musical genius, but foe every one that says this, there are likely ten people saying “Who the hell is Robert Pollard?”
