Do the Collapse

Guided by Voices

Seventeen tracks of surrealist indie rock scrubbed of its usual hiss. Big choruses, glossy production, and the most accessible hooks in the band's catalog.

August 3, 1999 · Creation Records

A bright, polished surge of melodic optimism masking surrealist anxieties.
