April 16--Incoming Update! Pre-Record Store Day Madness! New Stuff! Sales!
In the mid-90s wasteland of manufactured alt.rock, among other things we'd rather forget about, arose Dayton, Ohio's Guided By Voices who were channeling years of obscurity as a band into the triumvirate of their greatest works. Arguably, the fi
nal piece to their apex is the absolutely essential masterpiece, Alien Lanes. Building off their previous masterpiece, Bee Thousand, Guided By Voices made another perfect record with Alien Lanes. They would, of course, continue to make great albums with different members for years following--but it's hard to argue when they were at their peak. Matador Records, along with Bee Thousands predecessor, has also unleashed Propeller, which is now back in print in vinyl form--180 grams of perfection.

Matador also presents us with two other key 90s re-issues, Pavement and their landmark Slanted and Enchanted and Crooked Rain records. Both are heavily packaged on 180 grams of wax and come with free download codes, as does all of their releases. Don't forget the Pixies reissues, either.
