ReviewsRanked #10 in Spin's list of the '20 Best Albums Of '94' - "...a thousand hooks, offering perfect distillation of...basement tape aesthetic....sloppily records immaculate melodies capable of breaking your heart...they're so insistently catchy and so fleetingly brief...", "...the band's basic folk-pop melodies come straight from art-rock England circa 1967-1969. Through no fault of GBV itself, the critical hype has obscured the subtleties in the group's music...", "Beneath all the fuzz, krunk, and recorder grot, GBV hides absolutely shattering melodies that call to mind a thousand reference points of light...", 4 Stars Out of 5-"Rarities Galore Make this a Must for Any Self-Respecting Fan.", 7 (out of 10) - "...Exactly why the indie-rock world hasn't yet gone as misty-eyed over Guided By Voices as it did over Pavement and Sebadoh is one of the great mysteries of our age...", "It Does Show the Amount of Thought Pollard Puts Into Making and Sequencing a Record.", "...Guided By Voices hides absolutely shattering melodies that call to mind a thousand reference points...", "...Whether he wants to or not, Pollard and his loose-knit gang may be the logical successors to Beck in the up-from-the-underground poster-boy category..." - Rating: B+, Included on Neil Strauss' list of the Top 10 Albums Of '94 - "...The most consistent album of quickie tunes yet from this 12-year-old Dayton, Ohio band.", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...BEE THOUSAND is a tour de force by a good old-fashioned American basement genius....the real miracle of BEE THOUSAND is that it not only celebrates the power of rock music, it also embodies it...", Ranked #8 in the Village Voice's 1994 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll., "...Wish I knew the names of the voices guiding...Robert Pollard and his friends to make some of the most hazily gorgeous records being made today...", Ranked #80 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "They peak with a batch of tunes that sound like long-lost Beatles and Who demos."
