Han pasado 8 años desde que Robert Pollard anunció el final de Guided by Voices. La longeva y prolífica banda de Dayton, Ohio, se despedía con un último álbum, Half smiles of the decomposed (Matador, 2004) y una gira final, ya convertidos en leyendas del indie rock. Fundados en 1983, el conjunto llevaba 15 álbumes y un sin número de sencillos, EPs y temas para compilaciones. En la actualidad, a sus 53 años, Pollard tiene más de 1500 canciones registradas bajo su nombre. Let's go eat the factory reúne a los miembros de [...]
Robert Pollard 's output for the past decade and a half has been nothing short of copious, steam-pressing rock albums together year after year like a machine. 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. With the reunion of Guided by Voices, Pollard could have easily slowed down with his solo work, but it seems the band's reformation only further empowered the frontman to continue penning lengthy, sketchbook-like LPs. This diary aspect is apparent about three songs [...]
This past week, it felt like everyone was in Austin, TX. Between the tweets, Facebook posts, or random scans through the blogosphere, news about the awesomeness that is SXSW was utterly inescapable. But even while the majority of the music world's attention turned in that very particular direction, there was still a bunch of stuff going on that served as a consolation prize for those stuck everywhere but Texas. The lucky ones can sample this, too, like the icing on the already massive cake. Featuring tracks from Guided By Voices, Garbage, Jack White, and more, this should do the trick. [...]
Hidden Shoal Recordings is excited to announce the release of new single 'Manatoc Enters The City / The Long Fall' by musical experimentalist and long-time Robert Pollard collaborator Todd Tobias , taken from his forthcoming debut solo album Medicine Show . 'Manatoc Enters The City / The Long Fall' is a multi-part mini-epic that offers a tantalising taste of Medicine Show 's shadowy steampunk dystopia. The track kicks in like a panic attack, a dizzying flurry of organ and toms alternating with lurching guitar. The chaos soon calms, but builds in intensity again as a [...]
After taking an 8 year hiatus Guided by Voices released Let's Go Eat the Factory earlier this year and is soon to release yet another album, Class Clown Spots a UFO . (Brownie points for one of the more original album titles I've heard lately). The new song falls right in line with the band's previous work, of which there is plenty to draw from, utilizing pop and sonic rock to create a likable and promising first single. Give it listen below.
![[Listen] Guided By Voices - "Keep It In Motion"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4128201_lg.jpg)
Following the January release of Let's Go Eat the Factory , Dayton, OH indie rockers Guided By Voices are quickly producing a follow-up LP titled Class Clown Spots a UFO , which is set for release in June. The Quietus points to a brand new single from the upcoming studio effort, titled "Keep It In Motion," which you can stream below. The song is also set to be released on pink vinyl on March 19th, backed by "Pink Wings" and "White World." As well, two more singles, "Jon the Croc" [...]
![[Listen/Download] – Lightouts – "The Cure For Shyness"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4127477_lg.jpg)
Listen to and download the new single from Lightouts , "The Cure For Shyness" . I require precisely no convincing that Lightouts are brilliant, but if you're in any doubt then by all means check out their new single, "The Cure For Shyness" . It preserves all the scuzzy, '90s-rock joy of their first few releases, while B-side "Deep Ends" also brings in some shoegaze touches and an undeniably Pumpkins chorus. I'm going to be honest, here: I really, really miss rock [...]
Com novo álbum agendado para junho, o Guided By Voices libera primeira prévia aos fãs. Keep It In Motion estará presente, segundo informa o The Quietus , no disco Class Clown Spots A UFO , além de ser lançada em vinil rosa no dia 19 de março. As músicas Pink Wings e White World figuram o lado-b deste trabalho, que sai pela gravadora Fire Records. Guided By Voices - Keep It In Motion
Guided By Voices acaba de estrenar Keep It In Motion , primer track de un nuevo disco que estará listo en el mes junio. Class Clown Spots A UFO es el nombre de lo nuevo de Robert Pollard y compañía que saldrá a través del sello Fire Records . Por ahora no se sabe mucho más del sucesor de Let's Go Eat The Factory editado en junio de este año. [...]
Robert Pollard - "Picnic Drums" Would I be chased out of town by a mob of torch-wielding GBV fans if I said I liked R. Pollard 's new Mouseman Cloud (out now on Fire ) better than recent reunion disc Let's Go Eat the Factory ? Probably, so I won't. I will , however, say it's one of the year's best thus far, and one of Pollard's strongest musical statements (solo or otherwise) [...]
Frank Yang A little time off can be nice, but as much as I was enjoying the very unusual but welcome two-week break from show leading up to SXSW this week, it was also making me a bit antsy. Thank goodness for the Young Prisms in-store at the new Kensington Market location of Sonic Boom, in advance of their show that evening at The Drake. It would give me a quick, convenient way of scratching the live music itch and also let me pick up some LP sleeves. Everybody wins. I [...]
Como habitual, fica por cá o resumo do que de mais importante se passou na minha página alternativa do Facebook. A semana desta vez foi bastante extensa e com música muito boa partilhada. Comecemos pelo novo single dos norte-americanos We Are Augustines, "Chapel Song", tema que integra o álbum de estreia da banda, 'Rise Ye Sunken Ships', saído no ano passado. Para um estilo musical
Guided By Voices gained cult status among fans in the 90s for several landmark lo-fi albums such as Bee Thousand and Alien Lanes . The band put out a new album for the first time in nearly a decade last summer and they already have a new album called Class Clown Spots A UFO coming out in June. The first single from the forthcoming album is Keep It In Motion . It's a fairly simple, straightforward song that's pretty catchy. Check out the song below:
In terms of "work ethic," 99 percent of the music industry takes a backseat to Robert Pollard . The front man for Guided By Voices , and solo artist with 18 albums (one coming out later this year) to his own credit was at the helm of the reunited band, which came back with Let's Go Eat at the Factory last year. Unsurprisingly, they're on the cusp of releasing another album this June, Class Clown Spots a UFO . Listen to the album's first single "Keep It In Motion" below.
The reunited classic-lineup version of Guided By Voices appears to be back to its old prodigious ways. At the very beginning of the year, the band released the strong reunion album Let's Go Eat The Factory . Just a few months later, they're already planning to release their next full-length up on us. The next one is called Class Clown Spots A UFO , and it's due to arrive in June. The first single is a sparkling power-popper called "Keep It In Motion," and it's streaming below. Read More...

Get your first taste of the indie veteran's upcoming album.
"Keep It in Motion" is our first taste of Class Clown Spots a UFO, the second new Guided by Voices record of 2012. And while this album has been billed as the more rocking and more modern companion to the mostly lo-fi, Let's Go Eat the Factory, it still has that vintage GBV feel. The melody is simple, direct, and instantly hummable. Robert Pollard and Tobin Sprout trade the same two lines over the tracks two minutes. The drums, meanwhile, have that old '80s echo effect going on. Basically, it's a guitar-pop song unencumbered by expectations. And isn't [...]
As previously reported, Guided By Voices' plan to follow up January's Let's Go Eat the Factory with another studio album, Class Clown Spots A UFO , which is due out in June. As The Quietus points out, "Keep It In Motion" is the lead single from that second album, and you can now stream it below. "Keep It Motion, b/w tracks called "Pink Wings", "Chicken Wings", and "White Along", will also be released on standalone pink vinyl on March 19th. Two [...]
