Approaching Ohio’s immortal Guided By Voices unaware of Robert Pollard’s intimidating 110 album back catalogue, you’d hear superstars in waiting inexplicably pollarding a succession of singalong psyche-punk classics, thrilling seconds short of their becoming irresistible earworms.

The Littlest League Possible, a knockout seventy-eight second celebration of the big fish in the small pond, that could snaffle sharks were the business not beneath it, crowns another dazzling display of wholly justifiable arrogance.
