Suitcase: Failed Experiments and Trashed Aircraft is a four-CD box set released by Guided by Voices in 2000. Named for the reputed literal Suitcase in which bandleader Robert Pollard allegedly stored his hundreds of unreleased tapes, the set is a trawl through decades worth of material from throughout (and even predating) GbV's recorded career. Each song was credited to a fictitious band name. Variously featured are acoustic demos, album session outtakes, live tapes, rehearsals, and unfinished tape collage fragments which span from the mid-1970s to 1998.
Fictitious band names shown in italics.
