Discover this essential mid - 90s lo - fi indie rock vinyl! Guided By Voices almost quit when their album
Bee Thousand won them a new fan base. Thanks to its success, they landed a deal with Matador Records, getting a big advance. Then they went back to the garage and cassette recorders to create
Alien Lanes. This album shows the band more focused, with a cleaner sound. It's full of catchy power - pop moments hidden in tape hiss, with relatable and esoteric lyrics. With 28 songs, there are many gems. Start with 'As We Go Up, We Go Down', 'Game Of Pricks' and 'Motor Away'. It's a great album for quality listening time. Features include a black vinyl pressing, gatefold sleeve, original release in 1995, and a Matador 2015 music label.
Using this vinyl LP is easy. Just place it on your turntable, gently drop the needle on the starting groove, and enjoy the music. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting fingerprints on it. Store the vinyl in a cool, dry place, and keep it in its gatefold sleeve when not in use. This will help protect the vinyl from scratches and dust. Also, try to avoid exposing it to direct sunlight for long periods as this can damage the vinyl and affect the sound quality. Have a great listening experience!
