favorite EP is probably GET OUT OF MY STATIONS -- but the reissue with live tracks.

according to the GBV book Bob has a huge suitcase filled entirely with cassettes of unreleased material some of which goes back to the early 80s and this is where all the stuff on the suitcase boxsets comes from

noisereductions 08.07.2009 10:36 AM

that's true. Which is why the series is called... wait for it... Suitcase. :)

floatingslowly 08.07.2009 11:43 AM

just get Hardcore UFOs and call it a day.

noisereductions 08.07.2009 11:46 AM

meh

floatingslowly 08.07.2009 11:49 AM

you like the band but frown on the box set??!

noisereductions 08.07.2009 11:51 AM

no I frown about just getting one item and calling it a day.

floatingslowly 08.07.2009 12:06 PM

it's a big box. you can always try again tomorrow.

noisereductions 08.07.2009 12:07 PM

True. True.

Toilet & Bowels 08.07.2009 12:15 PM

GBV have 5 boxsets now, are there any bands who have done more?
Over the weekend I might upload the first Acid Ranch LP (if I can find my mp3s of it)

noisereductions 08.07.2009 12:16 PM

cool I never got Acid Ranch.

yeah there's Box, Suitcase, Suitcase 2, Hardcore UFO's... and then were you referring to Suitcase 3 or am I forgetting one?

REPUTATION !

I'm so happy to see someone say that. This is one of their best records and I consider it to be the most underrated album EVER !

Is that the one that has "Liar's Tale?" Great song.

Count Mecha 08.08.2009 03:34 PM

Nah. That's Self-Inflicted Aerial Nostalgia.

Good record though, An Earful O' Wax is my favorite from it.

noisereductions 08.08.2009 03:54 PM

King Shit & The Golden Boys has some good track as well.

Jeremy 08.08.2009 04:58 PM

Well, EVERY GBV release has some good stuff on it, some records are just better than others.

It's amazing just how much he writes yet still how consistent he is.

noisereductions 08.09.2009 05:02 PM

Gotta disagree there, Jeremy. It's amazing how much he writes. That's for sure. But he's not consistent. I mean he was in the golden-era of Matador albums. But really, the seven million albums are more about being fun to collect than they are about being consistently good from start to finish.

Actually with further thought I take my post back and agree more with you. Some his records, while not bad, are records I'll listen to maybe a couple more times. Combine with the fact that I don't really like the later GBV records as much outside of some stuff here in there.....

.... Eitherway the guy still writes tons. That at the least still makes me go coo-coo for cocoa puffs.
