Guided by Voices

In October 2010, Guided by Voices played a lively set at The Showbox SoDo in Seattle, performing 'Game of Pricks,' a staple from their iconic album 'Bee Thousand,' originally released in 1994. At this point in their career, they had just released 'Let's Go Eat the Factory' in January 2012, marking a triumphant return after a lengthy hiatus. This tour was particularly notable because it featured band founder Robert Pollard and other original members reuniting, drawing in both old fans and new. Their ability to blend raw energy with intricate melodies has always resonated with audiences, and this live recording captures their spirit perfectly. It’s a fascinating moment in their journey, as they balanced nostalgia for classic hits with an experimental edge, showing that Guided by Voices was still very much alive and relevant in the music scene.
