New Wilco album?

Question

What does everyone think about the new Wilco album?

I love it!!

Answer 1

Sky Blue Sky is a great album.



I have read some comments that this is Wilco lite.

Of course, there are those who complained about YHF was too loud and abrasive compared to Being There or Summerteeth.

A true Wilco fan should recognize that the genius of Wilco is that they evolve and change with each album ( The Beatles are one of the few bands to have done that successfully).

I saw Wilco live last October and heard Impossible Germany and Walkin for the first time. I loved the songs at first listen.

The guitar licks by Nels Cline is impressive as is the interplay among the band. This could be the first true band album and not simply a Tweedy album with sidemen.

I think it will get better with every listen. It takes patience to appreciate a Wilco album. My cd also had a DVD with it where the band conducted interviews as well as 8 performances at the loft. Great stuff.
