Crawlspace of the Pantheon is the 43rd studio album by the American indie rock band Guided by Voices, released on May 29, 2026. The announcement of the album coincided with the release of its lead single "We Outlast Them All" on February 25, 2026.
Background In Rolling Stone, the band's frontman Robert Pollard stated that the album, like its predecessor Thick Rich and Delicious, was recorded in a studio, despite the band members living in different areas across the country. Pollard praised the band's performances for being "tight and energetic". In regard to the songs themselves, Pollard stated that he spent more time working on the lyrics and that he aimed for the album to have an "overall emotional feel". The album is "slightly autobiographical," with "Lost in the Sun" referring to a fictional band called Ivory Gate, a stand-in for Guided by Voices.
