Guided By Voices will release its final studio album,
"Half Smiles of the Decomposed," Aug. 24 via Matador. The
14-track set was produced by Todd Tobias, who was behind
the boards for the group's 2003 album "Earthquake Glue."
GBV frontman Robert Pollard recently confirmed the group
will split at year's end.
"Half Smiles" is musically of a piece with GBV's past few
albums, blending upbeat rockers like "Gonna Never Have To
Die" and "Asphyxiated Circle" with more meditative fare
such as "Window of My World" and "A Second Spurt of
Growth." A snippet from what sounds like a television
evangelist can be heard at the beginning of "Sons of
Apollo," while keyboards and acoustic guitars underscore
the penultimate cut "(S)mothering and Coaching."
Album opener "Everybody Thinks I'm a Raincloud (When I'm
Not Looking)" seems to reflect Pollard's decision to
dissolve GBV in lines like "This is not my day / nobody
really cares anymore anyhow / nobody called again /
'cause they said that I'm too lazy to stay alive."
GBV only has six tour dates on its schedule at present,
beginning with a June 4 show in its Dayton, Ohio,
hometown. The itinerary is open between mid-June and Aug.
19, when the group will play a free concert on
Manhattan's Hudson River Pier. Pollard previously said
GBV's final gig would be on New Year's Eve in New York.
Enjoy This Fine Quality Release ...
