Guided by Voices (GBV) is an American indie rock band formed in 1983 in Dayton, Ohio.
A favorite of Roy's, there are multiple references to the band, their music and releases throughout the series. Examples include:
- The song "Game of Pricks" (from the Alien Lanes album) is featured at the end of the episode The Dinner Party.
- During an interview in Tramps Like Us, Jen asks the interviewer "Have you heard Guided by Voices? They're a band. I have. I've heard everything they've ever done. They're good. I'm a bit of a fan now."
