5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!! Recommended..., July 18 2005

This review is from: Mag Earwig! (Audio CD)
Amazon mispelled the title... Mag Earwhig! is a brilliant GBV album and deserves to be spelled correctly. Now let's get to the heart of the matter, the music. This is an album that has some treats from both camps - Lo-Fi as well as the slightly more produced songs from mostly their last few albums. This is rife with classics such as "I Am A Tree" and "Bulldog Skin" that used to always be crowd-pleasers at their live shows. Mag Earwhig! has some of my most treasured GBV songs, and its one album I can't stop playing...even after owning it for a few years. "Sad If I Lost It", "I Am Produced", "Not Behind The Fighter Jet", "Portable Men's Society", "Jane Of The Waking Universe" are all examples of great songs, although the whole album is amazing. "Learning To Hunt" is beautifully done as well. A must-have for any Guided By Voices fan!

4.0 out of 5 stars Really cohesive, Jun 17 2002
By Micah Newman - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mag Earwig! (Audio CD)
This is definitely the most overlooked GBV album, and I can't get over how well it holds together as a whole. Although the preceding _Under the Bushes_ has perhaps more "standout" tracks, _Mag Earwhig_ is a more complete album and sounds less cobbled-together. This is probably the GBV album I'd point someone to after the indispensable "Bee Thousand", "Alien Lanes", and "Isolation Drills". _Mag Earwhig_ is packed with tunes that gradually come out and wrap around your brain, like all classic GBV albums.

5.0 out of 5 stars The pefect Guided By Voices album., April 2 2002
By D. Bagley "davejustdave" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mag Earwig! (Audio CD)
Although "Alien Lanes" to me captures their sound best, "Mag Earwhig!" is the perfect balance of their lo-fi and hi-fi sound.
The songs range from short and fast to long and well composed.
In my opinion this is their finest, but it's all subjective, just if you are new, get this one as a first, that way you can travel from "Bee Thousand" to sat "Isolation Drills" without being shocked.
But alone on this albums merits, GBV really shine.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of their best, May 20 2001
By M. Golosinski "rasputin7771" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mag Earwig! (Audio CD)
I may be missing something, but I don't see why this one isn't more broadly considered a gbv classic. It's got hooks galore and plenty of wet-cement-basement acoustics that ought to please the faithful. There's an assortment of stand-out tracks here, including "Jane of the Expanding Universe" and "Not Behind the Fighter Jets." Gritty and dynamic, coming at you from a lost planet.
