late-great Jay Bennett go. I don't think they've ever been able to top his work with the band. I'll give this one a shot, though.


Ever heard of nels cline?

Im really loving this album.

I hear new shite every time i listen to it and i havent even begun to digest the lyrics.

Track 9 is my favorite. Freaking fantastic song.


You Satellite is a standout for me right now.

Sounds like a jim dandy, so far...

I was kinda bored with the last two albums..

The missus saw them last night at pitchfork and she thinks they played this in its entirety.. She isn't their biggest fan, so she was going off word of mouth...

Reconsidering my opinion. You married a chick that hates Isaac, I can't tolerate such bad taste.

She doesn't mind them, but doesn't see the fuss...

I like the more traditional Wilco albums, but to each their own.

All of their albums are great, but Sky Blue Sky, Mermaid Avenue, A.M., and A Ghost is Born are my favorites.


Haven't been able to sit down and give this new one a proper listen though.

I'm a luke warm Wilco fan and I think this album rocks. You Satellite and Pickled Ginger are both killer.
