Guided By Voices Announce Third LP of 2020- ‘Styles We Paid For’

Guided By Voices have recorded their third album of 2020 with their upcoming album Styles We Paid For, due out December 11th. They also have shared the first single, “Mr. Child”…

“Mr. Child” is a poppy rocker about the titular character, a fun-loving Peter Pan who “sees a rainbow/sees no rain” — whose M.O. is to “roll with the punches and remain a child.” Still, there’s something ominous about the forever-boy, who is “long and limber,” “always rolling,” and “erasing numbers,” Rolling Stone writes.

Despite the global pandemic, Guided By Voices have remained as prolific as ever, finding ways to create despite distance — Styles We Paid For was recorded by the members in five different states and is out December 11th.
