Format:Vinyl
The quickly released follow up to the mighty "Brown Submarine" album sees Robert Pollard and the Boston Spaceships continuing where they left off with some fanstastic catchy Rock Anthems! Is is better than "Brown Submarine"? Hard to say. Its certainly chock full of great songs and contains some of Robert Pollard best and most fun material in a few years. Go buy it, press play and turn up the volume.

Bob's Best in Years! 8 Mar 2009
By John D. Pride - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Since the dissolution of GBV, Bob Pollard has tried to reinvent himself by sort-of staying the same and sort-of not. Some lo-fi here, some prog rock here, a mono acoustic track over there and a genuine pop gem in the mix somewhere. Well, for fans who were waning, help is here, both from this disc and Pollard's new "Crawling Distance". The best news is that the new BS CD has more memorable songs than any of Bob's CDs in about 5 years. In fact, for 5 of the album's first 7 tracks, the Spaceships evoke the ghost and spirit of the Zombies, Kinks and Beatles while otherwise conjuring the spirit of Roy Wood's Move & Wizzard days, without aping the mersey era's tricks per se. This is a great record - fans needn't be afraid anymore!

Same Place The Planets Got Blasted 6 Aug 2009
By Hoagie Mike - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Once again, Boston Spaceships delivers a tight and tuneful, garage-rock-pop-prog-pysch-post-punk record, chock full of classic Robert Pollard nuggets. This band resembles vintage GBV, as a good contrast to Pollard's in-name solo records, with it sounding like a real band rockin' out in the garage. Track 2 & 3 even feature gbv alumni Greg Demos on lead guitar, how cool is that!?! Some of the tunes remind me of gbv's very early period, hence the title of this review. Favorites are the snappy opener "Canned Food Demon", "Dorothy's A Planet", "The Town That's After Me", the multi-section "Sight On Sight", the GBV-esque rocker anthem "Heavy Crown", and the grand, prog-rock gem "Big 'O Gets An Earful". Indeed, this is another diamond in the neverending Pollard collection. Just as good as the first Boston Spaceships cd, "Brown Submarine", and maybe even better.
Rock!

The best is coming out now 21 April 2009
By Michael J. White - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Yes, I am a fan of Bob Pollard. This record requires less listens than most of his work to discover its brilliance, but it will grow on you more each time. Bob is releasing his best work now, not that you wouldn't miss having a Tobin Sprout song mixed in here and there like a George Harrison song on a Beatles record. This one makes me miss Guided by Voices less because it is a better and more complete project. I loved the lo-fi era, but this new and bigger sound is impressive. The song writing is epic and Big O gets an Earful is a white hot live show highlight in waiting. This man, Uncle Bobby, has a dynamite live act and is surrounded often by the most beautiful people on the planet. And they're mostly blasted. Fina-music pays artists better if you figure on buying a download, and they have a nice 320 bit rate.
