1994 Extended Play containing the classics 'Scalding Creek' and 'Spring Tiger'. This is GBV's tender summer EP, considerably more realised than other EPs they realeased that year. It actually benefits from its brevity, unlike some of the exhaustingly packed LPs GBV have put out, a neat encapsulation of the golden years.
You also get 4 live tracks (from Alien Lanes, Bee Thousand & Propellor) tacked on the end of the concise, shimmering 7 song cycle.
Sweet.

The best GBV EP, IMHO!
14 Nov 2003
Format:Audio CD
If you are even reading this review, you gotta buy this EP. Guided By Voices have a lot of cd's out there, but this one's a real gem and is easily the best mini-album among the many they have produced. Melted Pat will make you laugh, Dusty Bushworms will make you cry, and Scalding Creek will make you say "wtf!", in a good way! Super lo-fi, Get Out of My Stations crackles and slinks and makes you want to jump up and down and break stuff. Trust me- as one of the chosen few who knows all GBV songs and owns all GBV records, this is one that's worth your wrinkled dollars. Long live rock!
Hauntingly awesome

Like Sunfish Holy Breakfast, this EP conjures a nice hazy, timeless atmosphere not found on most other GBV releases. Most of the songs are spare and stripped down, maybe an acoustic guitar, fantastic melody, and strange background noises giving them a psychedelic touch. This is a rare GBV EP without a clear "hit" (or two); rather, it fits together as a whole, but at least four of the tracks are flat-out masterpieces on the same level as other well known non-album tracks like "Shocker in Gloomtown," "My Impression Now," etc.
