Suitcase 2: American Superdream Wow


Suitcase 2: American Superdream Wow is the second box set of 100 unreleased songs by Guided by Voices. As with the first Suitcase box set, each song is credited to a fictional band name. For this set's artwork, fictional artwork, album covers, and ephemera associated with some of the acts was created.
The mastering process for this set involved a cassette-deck and a consumer-model standalone CD Burner operated by bandlead Robert Pollard himself, and the transfer process left a handful of tracks marred by digital audio glitches.
The subtitle "American Superdream Wow" comes from lyrics from the song "Denied" on From a Compound Eye .
Pollard later created a band called Boston Spaceships, which appears as a song on this collection.
