If you’re a member of the GUIDED BY VOICES Facebook fan group, you may have heard of the synchronized listening sessions that someone organized. Basically, it’s a bunch of people listening to an album at the same time and commenting about it in real time to a Facebook post in the group. The first series was called “Discussions In The Cave,” and went through each Circus Devils album, one per week. The current series (as of the time of this writing) is for the Boston Spaceships albums. Here’s the really cool part: Christopher Slusarenko (guitars and bass on the Boston Spaceships albums) is a member of the group and often joins in the discussions, listening to the albums along with us fans. He offers his unique insight into the band’s recording techniques, stories about him learning the songs from Bob’s demos, and other wonderful nuggets.
