Description
Guided by Voices' last album Thick Rich And Delicious (October 2025) was lauded by NPR's All Things Considered and picked #1 on Magnet Magazine's Best Albums Of 2025. The single We Outlast Them All from this latest, Crawlspace Of The Pantheon, is an anthemic victory lap on album #44 from the indie rock stalwarts. Robert Pollard told Rolling Stone: 'We Outlast Them All' could be our 'We Are The Champions' but it's not necessarily about us. It's about anyone who perseveres over a long period of time. On Crawlspace Of The Pantheon: I worked much more diligently on this set of lyrics. I chiseled away at lines and sections and phrasings... I wanted them to have an overall emotionally conceptual feel. At times it feels somewhat autobiographical.Guided by Voices will not be on tour in 2026. Pollard recently told Magnet: Why would we stop playing live and make these kinds of records? I don't know. We do what we wanna do.Pollard is the greatest rock lyricist of all time. -Dennis Cooper
