BOX contains Guided By Voices' first four albums, previously available only on vinyl: DEVIL BETWEEN MY TOES, SANDBOX, SELF-INFLICTED AERIAL NOSTALGIA and SAME PLACE THE FLY GOT SMASHED. Also included is KING SHIT AND THE GOLDEN BOYS, a collection of 19 previously-unreleased songs recorded between 1988 and 1993. The vinyl version of BOX also contains the band's fifth album, PROPELLER, which in CD form is available as part of VAMPIRE ON TITUS.

Most bands don't generate enough material for a five-CD box set in their entire careers, but Guided by Voices didn't break a sweat in collecting this trove. Active in their hometown of Dayton, Ohio since the mid-'80s, Robert Pollard, Jim Pollard, Tobin Sprout, and Mitch Mitchell had recorded over a dozen albums, EPs, and singles before 1994's BEE THOUSAND made them the darlings of the newly dubbed lo-fi underground. So new fans might have a chance to catch up with the band's long pre-"fame" career, GbV released the unpretentiously titled BOX.

This handsome package containins four of GbV's first five albums--DEVIL BETWEEN MY TOES, SANDBOX, SELF-INFLICTED AERIAL NOSTALGIA, and SAME PLACE THE FLY GOT SMASHED--excluding only the debut FOREVER SINCE BREAKFAST. The set also includes an exclusive CD of 19 previously unreleased tracks, many of them outtakes from the BEE THOUSAND sessions. BOX documents GbV's growth as the musicians shattered their influences--Wire, R.E.M., British Invasion pop, and jangly '80s post-punk-and gradually reassembled the shards into something startlingly new. Hardcore GbV enthusiasts and casual fans alike will find this collection essential and illuminating.

Additional personnel includes: Tobin Sprout, Bruce Smith.

Recorded between 1986 and 1993.

Taken together, these objets trouves become a kind of indie-rock version of Dylan's THE BASEMENT TAPES..."
