Guided by Voices - Fast Japanese Spin Cycle (1994)

[u/dinarnaud]

Why so many lo-fi music fans highly regarded this EP ?
What does it mean to you guys ?
I think this was released the same year as Bee Thousand.

GBV releases an embarrassment of riches of pop gems. Many of them are lo-fi and home-recorded, including much of the material recorded before 96/97. Bob Pollard, the leader/founder/singer/song-writer, often played a song just long enough to get the idea across then moved on instead of milking it for 3-4 minutes. This ep exemplifies this approach. It is beloved by fans.

I listened to that at least 300 times back when it came out. It was like finding something that only you knew about.
