Guided By Voices will keep the pedal to the metal as they head into 2013. The garage rock legends have just announced the Down by the Racetrack EP, which follows last year’s trio of LPs, Let’s Go Eat at the Factory, Class Clown Spots a UFO, and The Bears For Lunch.

Down by the Racetrack will be available in 7″ and CD formats on January 22nd through the band’s own GBV Inc. imprint. According to a press release (via Exclaim), the material finds the band “stretching out in a way not seen since early- to mid-’90s EPs like Get Out My Stations or Clown Prince of the Menthol Trailer.”
