White Flag

one of three guided by voices singles released by guided by voices at the same time. the third album of an extremely productive year, 'bears' is yet another example of how high guided by voices are flying right now. many bands struggle to release three albums in their career, never mind three in one year. the chugging, melancholic, melody-mad 'white flag' ("i think you know this time it's real," bob sings over an almost new order-ish bass line) is graced with 'casino model' and 'zebra film negative' on the flip side.
