Laughs Best

Triple vinyl LP pressing including bonus DVD. 2017 collection. Robert Pollard's freak-rock trio Circus Devils (2001 - 2017) says farewell with a pair of simultaneous releases. Laughs Best (The Kids Eat it Up) is a collection of 30 speedy deliveries from rock 'n' roll's Twilight Zone - will leave you exhausted, satisfied, and ready for another spin. Circus Devils' entire mind-bending catalogue is represented here, including three songs from the brand new album. While the emphasis is on friendlier numbers, plenty of the trio's prog psychedelia is also on display. Circus Devils was founded in 2001 by Robert Pollard, best known as the lead singer and songwriter of the Dayton, Ohio, band Guided by Voices. The band consists of Pollard (vocals and lyrics), Todd Tobias (music and production), and Tim Tobias (music). Circus Devils employs a wide spectrum of musical styles ranging from acid rock to ambient soundscapes. On the band's web site, the music is described as "garage-prog, or "art rock made by cave men."
