Guided By Voices - The Unsinkable Fats Domino 7" Instores Nov. 22nd

Guided By Voices are set to release their brand new album, ‘Let’s Go Eat The Factory’, in January 2012.
The album is preceded by a limited edition 7” single and digital download, ‘The Unsinkable Fats Domino’ / ‘We Won’t Apologize For The Human Race’, released through Matador on November 22nd.
After December 20th, the digital download will no longer be available.
Reuniting their classic line-up of Robert Pollard, Tobin Sprout, Mitch Mitchell, Greg Demos and Kevin Fennell last year, this will be the first new music the band has put out since 2004’s ‘Half Smiles of the Decomposed’.
GBV reformed for the Matador Records 21st birthday Las Vegas celebrations in October 2010. The Dayton, Ohio five-piece, got together their 1993-1996 line-up, widely regarded by fans as the band’s best, for the event.

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, OH-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, winning positive reviews throughout the mainstream music press and signing a larger distribution deal with Matador Records.
Despite all of the attention, the band never changed their aesthetic, continuing to record their albums on cheap four-track tape decks and thereby limiting their potential audience, yet that devotion to lo-fi indie rock helped Guided by Voices maintain a sizable cult.
