    The 17 loose, grungy guitar-led songs here ... sound full of renewed energy. [May 2012, p.103]

    On Mouseman Cloud, Guided By Voices frontman Robert Pollard is up to his same old genius.

    This buckshot spray of quick pop tunes is another wild success in his constantly twisting variations on a theme.

    Mouseman Cloud isn't game-changing, but it's definitely Robert Pollard's finest collection of songs since Robert Pollard Is Off to Business.

    On Mouseman Cloud, his fifth solo album in the past two years, Pollard's craft runs a bit stale, impressing more with quantity of ideas than actual substance.
