 The best of GBV October 6, 2008

Certainly the best Guided by Voices EP (and at ten songs, a very generous EP), but on most days I'd argue it's their best release period. If you are already a fan, seek it out and it will be one of your most cherished possessions.
 be sure you're a fan June 11, 2008

if you're new to guided by voices you may want to steer clear of this one. even me, a hardcore fan, needed time to warm up to this EP. previous reviews are undeniably correct, some of the tracks are barely audible. however, as is the case with every gbv release, there are gems of genius that make sunfish holy breakfast worth getting (e.g. Contest Featuring Human Beings, Winter Cows, If We Wait).

...but if you want an example of the absolute worst recording ever, this is it. Who the hell knows if this is good music when it sounds like it was recorded in a tin can? Seriously, I dig this genre in general, but the recording is absolutely so terrible and so distorted that is sounds like an LP that got chewed up by the dog. My wife commented if I was serious with this album...she thought it was a joke for how completely bad something could sound.

This was one of my first GBV records, and I somehow lost it. Very depressing since I didn't know that it was somewhat rare when I got it. I'm not an expert at finding music on the internet, but I've finally managed to get most of the songs over time.
Anyway, there are some really good tunes on this one. "If We Wait" is probably the best, but the whole thing is good and very much worth getting if you're a fan. Yes, even if it costs you fifty bucks.
No problems here January 31, 2002
George a Pletz (Central PA, USA)
If you like the ramshackle lo-fi days of GBV, you should have no problem with this. In the blink and you missed it style of so much GBV and Pollard material, it rewards on frequent returns. Jabberstroker reminded me of how much I enjoyed Tobin's contributions. Cocksoldiers eludes to the epics like Redmen and Their Wives albeit in minature. Trendspotter Acrobat exposes a rare and enjoyable Greer vocal. Stabbing a Star rates up there with the rock haikus that made up the Alien Lanes album. Since everbody has already touted the very cool If We Wait I see no reason to refute it. Okay so it is not essential but if you love the band I don't see why you'd complain. Not a place to start but a fine addition to that ever-expanding collection of GBV related projects.
