DESCRIPTION 2017 release. Guided by Voices' August By Cake is the one hundredth studio album that Robert Pollard has released since 1986's Forever Since Breakfast. To put that in perspective, Bob Dylan has released roughly thirty nine studio albums since 1959. And that includes the Traveling Wilburys. This is a highly anticipated record, which includes the new line-up (returning GBV veterans Doug Gillard and Kevin March, virgins Bobby Bare Jr and Mark Shue) that has been wowing audience in clubs and festivals throughout 2016. It's the most musically adept and versatile line-up Pollard has ever assembled. With thirty two songs, this album is also GBV's first ever double album, and song contributions from all five band members is additional icing on the cake, setting album #100 apart from the previous 99. The double album is an important format in Pollard's own musical iconography, and he doesn't take the form lightly - one reason he's planned and abandoned several would-be GBV double albums in the past is his high regard for foundational works like Quadrophenia, the White Album, The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway, Daydream Nation, Zen Arcade, Double Nickels On the Dime - "defining records for these bands," says Pollard. It's important to him that August By Cake not just be a double album but that it be a great one . 1 5º On The Inside2:282 Generox Gray®1:583 When We All Hold Hands At The End Of The World2:024 Goodbye Note2:515 We Liken The Sun2:096 Fever Pitch1:017 Absent The Man1:368 Packing The Dead Zone2:519 What Begins On New Year's Day1:5910 Overloaded3:3211 Keep Me Down2:3312 West Coast Company Man1:5513 Warm Up To Religion1:5214 High Five Hall Of Famers2:0815 Sudden Fiction2:4116 Hiking Skin1:5617 It's Food2:5318 Cheap Buttons2:1119 Substitute 112:3120 Chew The Sand3:4421 Dr. Feelgood Falls Off The Ocean1:5922 The Laughing Closet1:3223 Deflect/Project2:3324 Upon The Circus Bus2:2025 Try It Out (It's Nothing)1:4726 Sentimental Wars2:4827 Circus Day Hold Out2:0228 Whole Tomatoes1:1229 Amusement Park Is Over2:1830 Golden Doors1:4431 The Possible Edge2:0132 Escape To Phoenix2:07
