Reviewing Guided By Voices: Part One: Leg Kicks

No review of a Guided By Voices show is ever truly complete without a reference to Bob Pollard's leg kicks. Here's some commonly used descriptions you might consider for your next GBV review:

Big leg kick
High leg kick
Really high leg kick
Boozy leg kick
Classic leg kick
Chin-high leg kick
Waist-high leg kick
Kung-fu leg kick
Patented high leg kick
Trademark high leg kick
Botched Bob leg kick
Aforementioned leg kick

High leg kick or really high leg kick?
Good critics can tell the difference.
