Comments
This digital release was part of the one-year HOT FREAKS subscription started during the 2020 pandemic that delivered weekly emails on Tuesdays that contained sneak previews of brand new songs, plus rarities, never-before-heard tracks, demos, live concert recordings, rare photos and videos, recording secrets, exclusive swag offers, and many more surprises from deep within the Guided By Voices vaults. HOT FREAKS subscription cost was $100 for one year for exclusive access to downloads and streaming content (with easy-to-use apps for phones or computer).

HOT FREAKS - Week 52

All songs written by Robert Pollard

Robert Pollard - vocals
Doug Gillard - guitars
Tim Tobias - bass on tracks 6 & 7

Bob & Doug preliminary demos for Broadcaster House, which would later be renamed Isolation Drills. Recorded individually on 4-track cassette in Dayton and Cleveland in 2000.

Cover art is cover art mock-up that was a TVT pencil drawing experiment based on a Pollard collage. The collage was later used on the back of Motel Of Fools in 2003.

MP3 or WAV download.

Online Promo Jukebox player listed this release as "Broadcaster House - Part I". This implies that maybe the full band demos may eventually surface as a Part II.
