GUIDED

BY

VOICES





Como &nbsp;várias&nbsp; outras&nbsp;
bandas &nbsp;do passado e do presente ,
o&nbsp; Guided &nbsp;by&nbsp;
Voices é fundamentalmente&nbsp; um &nbsp;veículo&nbsp;
para&nbsp; o&nbsp; imenso&nbsp;
talento&nbsp; de&nbsp; seu&nbsp;
líder&nbsp; e&nbsp; fundador, o&nbsp;
americano&nbsp; Robert&nbsp; Pollard, por muitos&nbsp; considerado&nbsp;
um dos&nbsp; maiores&nbsp; expoentes &nbsp;da&nbsp;
cena&nbsp; Indie&nbsp; atual; veterano,&nbsp; com&nbsp;
quase&nbsp; 20&nbsp; discos&nbsp;
lançados&nbsp; desde&nbsp; o&nbsp;
começo&nbsp; nos&nbsp; primórdios&nbsp;
dos anos&nbsp; 80, o grupo
manteve-se&nbsp; em atividade&nbsp; até&nbsp;
2004,&nbsp; quando&nbsp; foi&nbsp;
desmanchado&nbsp; para&nbsp; dar&nbsp;
a&nbsp; vez&nbsp; a&nbsp;
várias&nbsp; carreiras-solo &nbsp;de&nbsp; seus
integrantes&nbsp; na&nbsp; época&nbsp;
e&nbsp; foi&nbsp; regrupado&nbsp;
em&nbsp; 2010, agora&nbsp; como&nbsp;
um quinteto, &nbsp;obviamente&nbsp; sob&nbsp;
a&nbsp; égide&nbsp; e&nbsp;
liderança&nbsp; de&nbsp; Pollard.
“English Little League” ,&nbsp; o&nbsp; mais&nbsp;
recente&nbsp; trabalho&nbsp; do&nbsp;
grupo, e o quarto após&nbsp; o reagrupamento,
vem&nbsp; comprovar&nbsp; o&nbsp; inspiradissimo&nbsp; trabalho&nbsp;
de&nbsp; composição &nbsp;do grupo,&nbsp;&nbsp;
oferecendo&nbsp; para&nbsp; apreciação&nbsp;
17&nbsp; generosas e&nbsp; excelentes &nbsp;faixas,&nbsp;
quase&nbsp; todas&nbsp; elas&nbsp;
mantendo&nbsp; o&nbsp; habitual&nbsp;
padrão&nbsp; de &nbsp;composições&nbsp;
curtas&nbsp; que&nbsp; caracteriza&nbsp;
o&nbsp; trabalho&nbsp; do&nbsp;
grupo;&nbsp; expondo&nbsp; as&nbsp;
habituais&nbsp; influências&nbsp; do&nbsp; “british&nbsp; rock”&nbsp;
-&nbsp; que&nbsp; em &nbsp;vários&nbsp; momentos&nbsp;
não se&nbsp; furta&nbsp; a&nbsp;
lembrar&nbsp; os&nbsp; Fab&nbsp;
Four&nbsp; -,&nbsp; com&nbsp;
pitadas&nbsp; de&nbsp; psicodelia&nbsp;
e&nbsp; com&nbsp; fortes&nbsp;
raízes&nbsp; fincadas&nbsp; no&nbsp; “lo-fi”,
o&nbsp; disco&nbsp;
é&nbsp; um&nbsp; convite&nbsp;
a&nbsp; que&nbsp; cada&nbsp;
um faça&nbsp; sua&nbsp; lista&nbsp;
pessoal de&nbsp; preferências,&nbsp; tantos&nbsp;
são os&nbsp; “highlights”&nbsp; a serem &nbsp;destacados;&nbsp;
eu,&nbsp; pessoalmente,&nbsp; não&nbsp;
posso deixar de&nbsp; mencionar&nbsp; a&nbsp;
ótima&nbsp; abertura&nbsp; com o&nbsp; “rock&nbsp; clean”&nbsp;
de&nbsp; “Xeno Pariah”&nbsp; e&nbsp;
o&nbsp; fabuloso&nbsp; seguimento&nbsp;
com&nbsp; “Know &nbsp;me&nbsp;
as&nbsp; heavy” , a&nbsp; viajante&nbsp;
e&nbsp; etérea&nbsp; “Islands (She talks in rainbows)” , “Quiet
Game”, “Noble&nbsp; insect”&nbsp; e&nbsp;
por&nbsp; aí&nbsp; vai!!!!&nbsp;
Na&nbsp; verdade,&nbsp; por&nbsp;
tratar-se&nbsp; de&nbsp; um&nbsp;
disco&nbsp; imensamente&nbsp; coeso&nbsp;
e&nbsp; qualitativamente&nbsp; uniforme,&nbsp;
sugiro&nbsp; que&nbsp; escutem&nbsp;
todas&nbsp; as&nbsp; faixas&nbsp;
para&nbsp; tirarem&nbsp; suas&nbsp;
próprias&nbsp; conclusões:&nbsp; afinal&nbsp;
trata-se&nbsp; de&nbsp; um&nbsp;
dos&nbsp; mais&nbsp; espetaculares&nbsp;
compêndios&nbsp; de&nbsp; ótimo&nbsp; “
rock”&nbsp; lançados&nbsp; este&nbsp;
ano!
