GUIDED BY VOICES
Beginning in the mid-'80s, Robert Pollard revolutionized indie rock with ever-evolving
lo-fi pop created by a rotating cast. Inspired equally by jangle pop and arty post-punk,
Guided by Voices created a series of trebly, hissy indie rock records filled with
infectiously brief pop songs that fell somewhere between the British Invasion and prog rock.
After recording six self-released albums between 1986 and 1992, the Dayton, Ohio-based
band attracted a handful of fans within the American indie rock underground.
With the 1994 release of Bee Thousand, the group became an unexpected alternative rock sensation

Self-Inflicted Aerial Nostalgia is the first Guided by Voices album to sound like a Guided by Voices album. For the first time, the band can be heard using low-fi production to their advantage, such as on the opening track, "The Future Is in Eggs," on which Pollard's vocals are blurred like a distorted instrument to complement the track's bleary mood. The improvement in Pollard's melodies here is revelatory, and he and the band move beyond their influences, crafting a blueprint of the signature sound that they would develop to increasingly greater success throughout much of the following decade. Highlights include "The Great Blake St. Canoe Race," the melancholy, harmony-laden "Paper Girl" and the tremolo-heavy ballad, "Liar's Tale."...(AllMusic)
