![[Album Review/Listen] – Boston Spaceships – "Let It Beard"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3659500_lg.jpg)
Tweet Robert Pollard , lead singer of Boston Spaceships, has always been a prolific musician. Guided By Voices , his first band, often made albums running to around twenty songs. Since disbanding GBV in 2004, though, Pollard has reached James Brown like levels of output, releasing fourteen solo albums in seven years. In 2007, along with three solo records, he released one record with each of his four side projects. He added a fifth side project in 2008, Boston Spaceships, and in 2011 [...]
Assuredly, everyone's heard of supergroups like the punk powerhouse OFF! or Mick Jagger and company's Superheavy . But how's this for a power combo: John Moen of The Decemberists, Chris Slusarenko (formerly of Guided By Voices), and GBV frontman Robert Pollard coming together to form Boston Spaceships . Yeah, that sound you just heard was your jaw violently smacking the floor. The trio, who first started playing together as a unit in June 2008, have released four other albums and several 73 singles. But today, they've released their most auspicious work to date, [...]
The indefatigable Robert Pollard has kicked out another batch of songs with Boston Spaceships bandmates and musicans Chris Slusarenko and John Moen. A new double LP is expected in August under the title "Let It Beard". See the awesome song titles below ["I Took on the London Guys" - incredible or what?] Under the Radar Mag writes : Boston Spaceships, one of the many projects of "does he sleep" Robert Pollard, has announced new album, Let it Beard (out August 2 via GBV, INC). The album—a double LP—gives new [...]
Just tonight saw for the first time this cool Robert Pollard / Boston Spaceships song and companion cookvideo from late last year. Awesome. Directed by Todd Lamb. Starring competitive eater Tim Eater X Janus. Tim is the current tamale-, cannoli-, burrito-, and tiramisu-eating champion of the world. Boston Spaceships are Robert Pollard (Guided By Voices), John Moen (Decemberists), Chris Slusarenko (Guided By Voices) On this track they are joined by guest guitarist Peter Buck (R.E.M) and Tommy Keene. And good news on the Boston Spaceships front - a new CD [...]
Outside the Uptown Theatre, it looked like the Pacific Northwest as a blanket of cold, misty rain enshrouded the town. Inside the Uptown Theatre, it was about to sound like the Pacific Northwest as Portland's finest was preparing to take the stage. The weather, a possible nuisance to those at the outdoor NIN / Jane's Addiction concert across town, was just the finishing touch for the setting of the Decemberists ' tour. Blind Pilot , a harmonious indie folk group along the lines of the Fleet Foxes and Avett Brothers [...]
John Moen es el baterista de The Decemberists y de Robert Pollard´s Boston Spaceships. También trabajó con Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks , Elliot Smith e integró The Maroons y Dharma Bums. Acaba de editar Perhapsts su primer disco solista, en el que toca la mayoría de los instrumentos y cuenta con la colaboración de Malkmus. Gracias John Moen por contestar estas preguntas para Les Paradis Artificiels. ¿Por qué grabaste el álbum en cintas [...]
by alyssa coluccio I love the phrase "Mellow-'delic". Just the idea of something so smooth and dreamy packing such an unexpected punch can't help but secretly thrill a person. It's like eating nachos with spicy salsa, or drinking coffee with an extra shot of espresso, or listening to folk music that segues to psychedelic within the same track. Such is the sound of Perhapst , as deemed by front man John Moen, who was kind enough to answer some questions [...]
The Decemberists have announced the first leg of their Spring 2009 North American tour in support of The Hazards of Love , their ambitious new album to be released by Capitol Records on March 24th. The 16-date run will kick off May 19th at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles, and include a June 10th performance at Radio City Music Hall in New York, as well as a set at the 2009 Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in Tennessee. A limited number of pre-sale tickets are now on [...]
After years of drumming for great bands and artists such as The Decemberists , Elliott Smith , The Dharma Bums and Stephen Malkmus (as well as maintaining the front man position for The Maroons ), Portland musician John Moen has finally bestowed his epic instrumental skills and brilliant song-writing abilities on his new indie/folk laden album, Perhapst . With help from friends (who will be revealed shortly), Moen intertwines experimental sounds with mellow indie-folk, emphasized by savory lyrics, and a broad array of instruments to bring his melodic creations to life.

EXCITING NEW MUSIC! Perhapst is The Decemberists' talented drummer John Moen's side project , which he fronts and plays guitar. Moen, prior to being The Decemberists' drummer, drummed for Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks, and Elliott Smith (he drummed on Elliott Smith's Saturday Night Live performance). Moen is also the drummer for Robert Pollard's Boston Spaceships. Thoroughly Impressive John Moen steps out from behind the Kit [...]
MP3: Perhapst - Aren't You Glowing Around this time every year, melancholy pop albums seem to find their home in my possession. I don't think it could happen any other way. Any other time of the year is inappropriate. Summer is too sweaty and fun, spring too lively, and autumn too filled with new experiences. During the end of December and the beginning of January my level of cynicism is at an all time high. I watch all the cars rush to department stores to buy gifts for holidays I'm not sure are even necessary, [...]
Before Friday night, I had never seen The Decemberists live and yes, I'm retro-actively kicking my own ass. In 2003, a friend introduced me to the Portland indie rock/baroque pop five piece, bestowing upon me Castaways and Cutouts and the then newly-released Her Majesty The Decemberists , though it wasn't until 2005's Picaresque that I really fell in love with The Decemberists ("The Mariner's Revenge Song" is still my favorite Decemberists song, and the bridge of "The Sporting Life" is my ringtone). I rolled into [...]
Being a Guided By Voices / Robert Pollard fan is the ultimate in the wheat/chaff dilemma. Whilst one is often confronted with some of the most undeniably brilliant nuggets stemming from what Pollard has lovingly declared "The Four P's" (pop, punk, prog, and psych,) his prolific songwriting output, coupled with his equally prolific release schedule, have combined to the effect that nearly everything he writes ends up on an official release these days. And so, while Pollard is an exceptionally talented songwriter, he is still a mere mortal capable of penning the occasional dud, and, more [...]

Quiet Colorby eliza czander People often consider side projects to be a let down. A seemingly unfinished work of an artist who isn't used to having so much control over their music. I, on the other hand, tend to really take to them. It's like seeing someone all dressed up for the first time or something. And whether the result is fantastic or it totally sucks, it's always interesting. [...]
