Robert Pollard may have claimed that Robert Pollard Is Off To Business was to be the only "proper" "Robert Pollard" release this year, but that's not stopping the Guided By Voices frontman from releasing albums under ever more monikers.
Pollard follows other '08 releases (...Off To Business, Superman Was a Rocker (a "mini-album"), We've Moved as Psycho & the Birds) with Brown Submarine as Boston Spaceships. Brown Submarine? Gross...
This from his website: Mr. Pollard was so enthusiastic about this album that he's decided to play his first proper club tour in two years. This from a guy who hates flying, goes bananas sitting in the van, and who has turned down tours with Radiohead and the Strokes. Give Brown Submarine a spin or two - it'll make you feel like a kid again, too.
Or go ahead, ignore Boston Spaceships and keep yourself busy finding the next Vampire Weekend, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah or Ned's Atomic Dustbin. But if you save this album on your shelf and pull it out a few years from now, we guarantee it will make you very very happy...
Oh, SNAP!
MP3: Boston Spaceships - "Go For The Exit"
