It’s been eight years since Guided By Voices released an album of new material (and nine years since I last saw them live), but it’s been fifteen years since the “classic lineup” of the band made an album. Let’s Go Eat the Factory reteams Robert Pollard with Tobin Sprout, Mitch Mitchell, Greg Demos, and Kevin Fennell. The band’s earliest albums were collections of songs recorded in the member’s homes and garages. This album not only reunites the band members, it follows the recording style of those early albums. The twenty-one songs have a barrage of the lo-fi stadium rock sound that made Guided By Voices an iconic band in the 90s.
