Bulldog Skin - Guided By Voices

Bulldog Skin - Guided By Voices
3:00
Mag Earwhig!, 1997
Written by Robert Pollard

A song abut being tough on the outside, not letting the bastards grind you down.  "I crashed my nerve / I made it swerve / I made it back, was no big deal."  There's an off-key swagger to this rousing rocker, a sort of Guided by Stones going on.  Like a lot of GvB, it's abstruse and abrupt, in a way that in the hands of other bands might seem like a toss-off, but it has an infectious, lurching energy.
