Guided by Voices - Doughnut for a Snowman 7'' (Fire, 2011)

Guided by Voices
Doughnut for a Snowman 7''
Fire
2011

Rating: 6.5 oil drums out of 10

Five songs in just over six minutes - yep, it's a Guided by Voices seven inch all right!  Quick, catchy pop songs as you'd expect - a fairly clean sounding recording, though not hifi.  This was recorded with the "classic" line-up that recently reformed, went on tour, and recorded a new record to be released soon.  This is probably only a must-have for the die hard fans, but you could do much worse in life.  As an added bonus, there is more recorder being played on this than you'd usually get on a GBV release, for all you recorded fetishists out there.
