Tuesday, Guided by Voices announced a new album titled Surrender Your Poppy Field, their first of 2020 after releasing three albums in 2019. Listen below to first single “Volcano.”
The track is quintessential Guided by Voices, if not more streamlined and elegant. Perhaps nodding to the Wizard of Oz inspiration for the album’s title, the track features poetic lyrics that read like a heartfelt Valentine’s card.
Surrender Your Poppy Field is due Feb. 20 via Robert Pollard’s own GBV Inc. You’ll find the details of the album below, along with its lead single and the band’s tour dates.
