Original Release Notes: Two 7" singles from KING HEAVY METAL, the forthcoming 2nd album by Ricked Wicky, the new project of Guided By Voices� mastermind Robert Pollard, joined by GBV�s Kevin March (drums), long-time collaborator Todd Tobias (bass) and secret weapon, Nick Mitchell (guitar).

The A-sides are majestic and hook-filled - classic Pollard rock. The non-LP B-sides are written and sung by Mitchell. "Quite Worthy": power pop / glam rock / 70s AM radio fuel this harmony-laden nod to Joseph Campbell-esque advice to "Follow Your Bliss." "Dissonance" is baroque chamber pop, acoustic guitar and cellos, harkening to early Jeff Lynne / Roy Wood.
