Lo-Fi and Bee Thousand
Guided by Voices' early albums and EPs had a notable lo-fi sound, instilling in the music intentional technical flaws and distortion. The music had a distinct garage rock sound, but was always infused with substantial pop melodies. The band garnered a significant cult following on college radio, and in 1994 released the landmark album Bee Thousand. After the success of this album, Guided by Voices signed to Matador Records.Changing Lineups and Finale
Pollard continued to change band members throughout the bands existence. The most common collaborators with Pollard were guitarist Tobin Sprout and bassist Dan Toohey. Pollard decided to call it quits for GbV in 2004, and they played a final show in Chicago on December 31, 2004. The show lasted four hours and has been released on DVD as The Electrifying Conclusion.
