Boston Spaceships was an indie rock band that soared onto the music scene in the late 2000s, formed by indie rock pioneer and Guided By Voices frontman Robert Pollard. The group was comprised of Pollard alongside the accomplished musicians Chris Slusarenko (former Guided By Voices contributor) and John Moen, the latter known for his work with bands such as The Decemberists. Boston Spaceships was celebrated for its raw and eclectic rock sound, meshing the lo-fi recording aesthetic with Pollard's uniquely prolific songwriting.
From their 2008 debut album "Brown Submarine" to their 2011 swansong, "Let It Beard", Boston Spaceships released a string of albums that showcased their ability to channel the energy of classic rock through a contemporary lens. Their records were well-received among fans of alternative and indie rock for their catchy hooks and literate, off-kilter lyrics. Titles like "Our Cubehouse Still Rocks" and "Zero to 99" solidified their reputation for delivering high-octane rock with a DIY spirit. While "Planets Are Blasted" and "Camera Found the Ray Gun" further expanded their discography, the band's tenure was short-lived. Despite their brief flight, Boston Spaceships left a lasting mark on the indie rock landscape, with a discography that remains a testament to Pollard's inexhaustible creative output and the band's musicianship.
