Blog post image previewCold hands touching my face Don’t hide - the snake can see you Old friends you might not remember Fading away from you These faithful words emanated from a scratchy piece of vinyl, weighted down by a copper penny in its fidelity. Guided by Voices "Bee Thousand" is one of those seminal records, where one can place their exact whereabouts, setting our chronometers to the wistful days of 1994. Summer exactly; living in a dilapidated green house with four other di... MORE

100 Greatest Songs - Exhibit 2

(68)
Today, I present "Smothered in Hugs," because my sunshine fund is low and because it seems an appropriate send off for the lovely Matt Cullen. I hated this song when I first heard it, along with everything on Bee Thousand, an album so painfully low-fi that it smacked of a rich kid slumming. Seriously, unless you're living in a cave and recording with rocks, there's no reason for an album to sound that bad. But a musician whom I love and trust couldn't believe I didn't ... MORE

yeah...

Free music video of I Am A Scientist (2)
This song is truly a classic. It's a song that really gives you a feel of what it was probably like being a (then) 35 year old 4th grade school teacher, with different ambitions (like rocking out). I know Mr. Pollard was heavily criticized for leaving teaching for this more "unsteady" career. People in Dayton, Ohio just are not supposed to do that kind of thing. I also like how the video shows what life in Dayon must be like (hanging around outside, drinking beer) I am a... MORE

Just another night of sitting hear listening to music...i just can't sit myself in front of the tv...unless there is a game on that I really want to see or a video game involved. Anyway, this one came on shuffle and made so happy that I thought I would post it...it was like talking to an old friend for the first time in years!

what ever happened to GBV?

Artist:
Album:
Track: I Am A Scientist, Awful Bliss, Gold Star for Robot Boy
i have been putting come CDs "from the vault" (ie, the basement) into iTunes and have been eager to get some GBV in there. i had forgotten how great they are. today i put "bee thousand" with "gold star for robot boy," "awful bliss," and my favorite, "i am a scientist." i even used to enjoy seeing them live with their awkward transitions and bob pollard doing high kicks and downing cans of pabst blue ribbon. what ever happened to them?

This is a post about oral sex in indie rock

Other Tags: Oral Sex, Blow Jobs, Bob Pollard, Robert Pollard, Guided By Voices, GBV, Liz Phair, Indie Rock, this'll get the kids attention, that one time Indie Jake did a review about Emily Haines
I originally wanted to title this post "This one is about blow jobs", but I don't think that would go through the MOG brain or whatnot. That, and the good corporate people of the world don't need to see "watchbatteries has made an entry on MOG: Blowjobs" on their e-mail notifiers. Time for the backstory. Alirght, remember the game I put out over the weekend? Well, one of the lines was from the song "Hot Freaks" by Guided By Voices. Bob Pollard's voice made for some unintel... MORE
