And with guest appearances from fellow indie rock luminaries like Doug Gillard and Tobin Sprout, the album is a who's who of the underground music scene. But what really sets "From A Compound Eye" apart is Pollard's fearless experimentation with different genres and sounds. From the psychedelic swirl of "I'm a Strong Lion" to the punk rock energy of "I'm a Widow", Pollard isn't afraid to push the boundaries of what indie rock can be. So if you're looking for a fun, quirky album that will make you want to dance and sing along, look no further than Robert Pollard's "From A Compound Eye".
