Trailer for Boston Spaceships new album Let It Beard
Epic double album by Robert Pollard / Chris Slusarenko / John Moen
Available for pre-order now: WWW.ROCKATHONRECORDS.COM
Out August 2, 2011
Features guest guitarists Colin Newman (Wire), J Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.), Steve Wynn (Dream Syndicate), Mick Collins (The Dirtbombs), Dave Rick (Phantom Tollbooth) and Mitch Mitchell (Guided By Voices).
A 75-minute thrill ride through the many forms Pollard has mastered in his three decades of writing and recording, Let It Beard is the White Album meets Quadrophenia meets Jesus Christ Superstar meets Same Place The Fly Got Smashed.
Robert Pollard has called the epic double-LP "a subconscious concept album about the sorry state of rock and roll."
One of Pollards best albums, needs more than a few listens, but once you get it it's fucking killer.

i like the album overall, but it does seem like they did a pretty good job of picking most of the best parts for this trailer.

Leave it to old guys like me to make the freshest, most satisfying music I've heard in a while. Do I hear vintage Bowie, some Who, a little Lennon, even some FLaming Lips. This is some great stuff all done in awesome LoFi!

Sounds amazing. Saw Dinosaur Jr live in Philly a month ago, and J Mascis is a hell of a guitarist! Nice gust to have.

I here the Sgt. Pepper influence with the horns, and that ending part is like A day in the life.....
