The new Guided by Voices album is the best thing they've done since 2004.
I wish the trend of articles with "We need to talk about..." in the title would descend back to hell.
We never post about Peter Gabriel in here, esp now that Ashley has disappeared, but that guy rules. Red Rain ftw.
Nice to see you back, if you're stressed, this place can be good comic relief to lighten the mood if only for a brief time. I mean look at the cast of chuckleheads we have here.Thanks, likewise.
To be honest, the only reason I haven't been posting is because I was getting overwhelmed with how much I'd missed (I tend to read every post in this thread and the other threads I follow) and the idea of even opening the app at that point was giving me so much anxiety I tried to pretend it didn't exist, but...baby steps. I'm here now.
Anyways, just to update you all:
So, at the beginning of the year I left my job in sports to go work in the movie trailer business. It was something I'd always wanted to do, and I was getting really overwhelmed working at the place I'd been at the last two years. Made the switch and realized that I wasn't ready for a whole big upheaval in my life like that. Ended up getting really depressed, gained about 30 pounds over where I was last summer, kinda went off the rails for about two weeks somewhere in the middle of it, started seeing a therapist, realized I really really hated my new job, and wanted to go back to my old one, but felt like I'd be a huge failure if I went back. Thankfully I had a God works in mysterious ways moment, and a job I applied for back in February gave me a call back at the beginning of July and ended up hiring me on the spot. Unfortunately, they only employ part-time, so I was going to have to turn them down, when my old job (where I worked with the UFC) called me and asked me if I'd come back to work on this project they have currently going on, and we ended up working it out to where I'd come back here full-time until my new job starts in late August, and then work at both places part-time. I'll end up working more, but I'm back in a place where I'm used to, so I'm hoping over the next weeks/months my anxiety level will go back down to his basic buzzing level that I always have, instead of this very loud high strung feeling I've been having for the last 3-4 months.
So, yeah, I'm happier now, but still very stressed out. The one thing I do need, though, is consistency and friendship, so it was a mistake not to ignore my OCD and just come in here and chat with you guys. So, I'm going to at least try and fix that one.
Yeah, so...there you go.
Yeah you gotta get ahold of Ovo, by any means necessary.Lot of good stuff on there.Sorry Mofo
As for powerfully moving stuff on Us, don't forget Washing Of The Water. What a vocal by PG.
Cobblock accomplished. Nice work, team.
Thanks, likewise.

Thanks for the tip. Picked it up a few days ago and really digging it. Their post-reunion output has been so overwhelming I felt out of the loop and had only heard about 4 of the albums. This one definitely sounds like a major release, best thing I've heard of this period as well.
The first thing that stands out is the guitars. A lot of great leads and riffs. Not aware of their current lineup but maybe a new addition? I also noticed a new vocalist who does lead on a few tracks. He's not bad.
So yeah, at 32 tracks it does taper off a little by the end, but it's surprisingly low on filler. Major recommendation for those who ever loved GBV (which should be everyone).
We need to talk about Cobbler.
Feels so unnatural, Peter Gabriel.
