GUIDED BY VOICES - BOX

Finally received this one in the mail the other day. It contains their first four albums and the "King Shit and the Golden Boys" compilation, which includes outtakes from the "Bee Thousand" era. Amazing stuff for a fan like me, their early stuff is so overlooked...

"Liar's Tale" is on Self-Inflicted Aerial Nostalgia. One of my least favorite GBV albums (it's my favorite band by the way) but still a great record, it has one of their best 80's songs: "Short on Posters" and other awesome songs such as "Navigating Flood Regions" and "Chief Barrel Belly"...

"Liar's Tale" is unreal. I love that song. I especially love the live version from um... hmm... gawd, which fucking live album is it on now? haha. Shit. I used to be soooooooooooooo good at GBV trivia. It's been some years since I've obsessed though.

Haha, it's nice to see another GBV fan here, their discography is so huge, there's so much stuff that can talked about... I don't have any live album with "Liar's Tale" though :eek: so I can't help... Unfortunately, they rarely play early stuff (from what I've heard so far) but there's like a version of "Trap Soul Door" on the Live at the Wheelchair Races disc (off the Hardcore UFO's box set)... That's the only live version of a song from Sandbox (my favorite of their first four) I've ever heard...

Even on their Electrifying Conclusion DVD, they didn't play much early stuff... :(

noisereductions 08.12.2010 08:38 PM

you made me go find it....


it's on it's on this live album:

 


released under the name The Cum Engines... one of their million pseudonyms. I had this on vinyl when it came out actually. I'm not kidding. I was waaaaaay obsessed with them for yeaars. Now I'm more passive and only get about half their (his) albums.

anyway, I had a lot of their "official" live albums, and this one was especially good. And the live version of "Liar's Tale" on it is unfuckingbelievable. Trust me.

Wow ! I'm gonna get that one, you seem to know more than I do :D (I've only been obsessed for about 3 years). Have you heard Crying Your Knife Away ? That's my favorite live album of theirs so far.

noisereductions 08.12.2010 08:47 PM

yeah I have Crying Your Knife, I have Sad Clowns and Happy Motherfuckers (under the name King's Ransom), I have Live In Austin TX, and um.. I probably have more. Like I said -- I was really obsessed for like a good 5 yrs. So I had like all the Fading Captain albums, all the official live albums, etc.

Fucking hell, I cannot express my approval hard enough. One or two names I don't know there (Kousokuya and Che-SHIZU), but PSF is one of the few labels where I can just see their logo and know that, even if it's not GREAT, the record will definitely be worth listening to. And it probably WILL be great. Very special thumbs up for Affection, which is not only my favourite PSF record, but one of those albums that always has to be considered as just flat out one of my most loved records. There are a very select few albums where I can point to them and just be like 'I'm not quite sure how I would have got through a very hard time without that', and it's unquestionably one of them to me. Haino is generally one of my all time musical gods. 'Era of Sad Wings' is also achingly fantastic.

EDIT: 'Heavier Than a Death in the Family' is also obviously badassery.

Derek 08.14.2010 07:08 AM

Yeah, AMAZING haul.

viewtiful alan redux 08.14.2010 04:39 PM

Local record store was having a 20% off sale, so I picked up the 2 disc deluxe edition of this:

Yeah, I've just been obsessed with PSF lately, I bought 12 CDs last month, and then found out about a sale they're having for their 25th anniversary so I just had to get more.
Kousokuya are probably my second favourite PSF band (after Shizuka). They get compared to Fushitsusha a lot (and Jutok Kaneko with Haino), but they don't really sound that similar. You should definitely get their first album. Che-SHIZU I don't really know anything about, I haven't even youtubed them (I just needed something to make up the 14) but as you said, because it's PSF it'll definitely be worth listening to.
I'll now have more than 30 PSF titles, but all of them will be psych rock, I haven't even begun to look into the folk and jazz stuff yet.
