  • Bee Thousand è il settimo album in studio del gruppo musicale statunitense Guided by Voices, pubblicato nel 1994 negli USA dalla Scat Records e distribuito dalla Matador Records. Nel 2004 è stato ripubblicato dalla Scat come Bee Thousand: The Director's Cut con l'aggiunta di brani inizialmente scartati dalle registrazioni del 1994 e con quelli contenuti negli EP The Grand Hour e I Am a Scientist. Nella collana 33⅓ venne pubblicato un volume omonimo scritto da sulla storia dell'album. L'album venne registrato e pubblicato dopo che era stato deciso lo scioglimento del gruppo il quale, grazie all'inaspettato successo di critica del precedente album , venne poi ricostituito per mettendo anche a Pollard di dedicarsi alla musica non dovendo più lavorare come insegnante di scuola elementare. L'album venne registrato su una macchina a quattro tracce. Questo fu il primo album che ebbe una diffusione più estesa, permettendo al gruppo di essere conosciuto anche fuori dall'ambio della sua città natale, Dayton nell'Ohio. (it)
  • Bee Thousand (werktitel: Bee Thousand (Hardcore UFOs)) is een album van de Amerikaanse indierockband Guided by Voices.

In 2004 verscheen het album nogmaals als drievoudige lp. De titel van het album kwam tot stand na een brainstormsessie waarbij softdrugs werden gebruikt. Het webzine Pitchfork Media heeft Bee Thousand in zijn twee enquêtes van de 'beste albums van de jaren 90' op de vierde en de tiende plaats genoteerd. In 2006 verscheen het boek van , waarin de totstandkoming van het album minutieus is opgetekend. Op de eveneens in 1994 verschenen ep I Am a Scientist is een hifi-versie te horen van het gelijknamige nummer. (nl)
