Guided By Voices - Crawlspace Of The Pantheon

Guided by Voices' last album Thick Rich And Delicious (October 2025) was lauded by NPR's All Things Considered and picked #1 on Magnet Magazine's Best Albums Of 2025. The single "We Outlast Them All" from this latest, Crawlspace Of The Pantheon, is an anthemic victory lap on album #44 from the indie rock stalwarts.

Robert Pollard told Rolling Stone: "It could be our 'We Are The Champions' but it's not necessarily about us. It's about anyone who perseveres over a long period of time." On Crawlspace Of The Pantheon: "I worked much more diligently on this set of lyrics. I chiseled away at lines and sections and phrasings... I wanted them to have an overall emotionally conceptual feel. At times it feels somewhat autobiographical." Guided by Voices will not be on tour in 2026. 

"Pollard is the greatest rock lyricist of all time." — Dennis Cooper
