"Propeller was the fifth album by Guided By Voices, and was intended to be the group’s last. Released as a limited edition of 500 LPs in 1992, the album featured handmade covers and blank labels to keep expenses as low as possible. Their other albums hadn’t sold much, why would this one? Robert Pollard had a family to support and his musical aspirations had not exactly been a boon to their bank account. As fate would have it, the band wound up releasing an album chock full of gems Pollard had stockpiled, and for the first time sounded distinctly like the band that fans have since come to love. Propeller also marks the return of Tobin Sprout to the GBV fold, along with an increased songwriting presence. From anthem-to-be “Over the Neptune” to the effortless melodies of closer “On the Tundra,” Propeller is a hell of a ride, and remains one of the most important albums in the band’s discography. The vinyl edition has been out of print for a decade, and features different cover art than previous pressings" @instagbv - Propeller - Limited PURPLE vinyl press in-stock now for $40 a pop. We've also taken the opportunity to re-stock other classic-era 90's GBV records Bee Thousand, Vampire On Titus and Under The Bushes, Under The Stars (Alien Lanes is out of stock currently, soz). @midheavenrevolver #guidedbyvoices #gbv #propeller #beethousand #vampireontitus #underthebushesunderthestars #robertpollard (at Beatdisc Records) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN1QaxdtqQ3/?igshid=tfsbnswy7x3s
No.5, “Albums (or Bands) That Make You Want To Start A Band... Or Me, Anyway.” Also fits under the “New (To Me)” category. Apparently while we were recording Mikes House songs on 4-tracks in basements, bedrooms and living rooms in the late 80s and 90s, so were Guided By Voices. I’ve been aware of them awhile (all the guys in Black Plastic Glasses and Phyllis/Rental Cars seem to be big fans), but never really listened, so I took the plunge: looked up what the internet thought were their best albums then found the most affordable one. And it’s such a familiar feeling, these living room recordings, and the album is just like riding in a car with a friend listening to a mixdown of a 4-track song we just wrote and recorded. These are different kinds of songs from what we were doing, but only by a little. In my opinion. Only by a little. And I think John Sheets did a way, way better job recording us. Anyway, I enjoyed this and would like to make a record in a basement/living room/bedroom/affordable studio...(cf. the post from Ball State a week ago Sunday). #vinyl #vinylcollection #guidedbyvoices #robertpollard #beethousand #iamascientist #ellipticalsoundtrack #treadmillsoundtrack #4track #nowspinning #nowspinningonvinyl (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrRlVAMHRY_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=o3m5fhmuijfj

Guided By Voices - Bee Thousand • In 1994, infamous lo-fi rock group Guided By Voices released their seventh (and arguably most notable) LP 'Bee Thousand'. Almost all of the record's twenty tracks were recorded during various one-off basement sessions and rehearsals dating as far back as the early 80s, and largely unaltered despite the candid one or two takes recorded on a four track unit for a majority of the songs. The release of 'Bee Thousand' garnered enough attention for the band to be noticed and eventually signed to now Indie/Alternative giant Matador Records. • Guided By Voices is an unconventional band in the grand scheme of rock bands, being primarily fueled by sporadicly prolific songwriter Robert Pollard. Pollard would employ "whoever was around" for the line up of GBV, leaving the majority of songwriting duties to Pollard alone. 'Bee Thousand' is the epitome of this tactic, having used a cast of rotating Dayton, Ohio based musicians, Pollard's forever home base. Many of the tracks on 'Bee Thousand' were actually demo recordings of songs to be recorded, as finances for the record were next to none, hence the apparent lack of "studio quality" recordings. Pollard's tunes are notoriously short, abstract, catchy, and charming, many of which were inspired by the whimsical musings of his elementary school students during his tenure as a school teacher. • Pollard holds the admirable distinction of being one of the most credited songwriters of his time, with approximately 2,000 recordings registered to his name under BMI. This distinction, however, holds little regard to Pollard himself, an advocate and devoted pioneer to what is now known as lo-fi, or DIY music. Pollard's take on GBV's recording tactics is as such: "...For our first EP Forever Since Breakfast, we went into a studio and created a very mediocre recording out of a very sterile environment. I thought, "Fuck that. If we're paying for it and no one's listening to these records anyway, if we're only making them for ourselves, then I'm going to put exactly what I want on them." • Scat, 1994. • #vinyl #records #recordcollection #guidedbyvoices #beethousand #robertpollard #scatrecords #matadorrecords (at Dayton, Ohio)
