- Release Notes:
- --------
- Wilco's seventh disc, Wilco (the album), took shape quickly in January '09 after
- the band traveled to Auckland, New Zealand to participate in an Oxfam
- International benefit project. The band began cutting tracks for the new album,
- producing it themselves with the help of engineer Jim Scott. The sextet
- completed the disc at its Chicago studio and performed some of the new material
- in April at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival; where the Times-Picayune
- praised the band's 'thrilling,
- nuanced set.' Wilco (the album) combines the intimacy of its previous studio
- disc, Sky Blue Sky (2007), with the experimentation of A Ghost
- Is Born (2004) in a set that boasts strong melodies and gorgeous, often
- unabashedly pop arrangements. Wilco has clearly laid out the welcome mat to
- admirers of all aspects of its career; in fact, the disc opens with 'Wilco (the
- song)' originally unveiled in the group's performance on The Colbert Report last
- October in which Tweedy & Co. offer their fans 'a sonic shoulder
- to cry on,' promising,'Wilco will love you, baby.' Talking to a Rolling Stone
- reporter, drummer Glenn Kotche calls it 'a great, upbeat song professing our
- love for our fans.' That said, Tweedy's lyrics remain frank and fascinating;
- Rolling Stone calls them
- 'sly, insightful and often heartbreaking.' As with Sky Blue Sky, most of the
- tracks are concise in shape; 'Bull Black Nova,' however, features a dramatically
- building arrangement and thrilling guitar crescendo, more duel than jam. It's
- followed by the gentler 'You and I,' a duet between Tweedy and Canadian singer-
- songwriter Feist, and 'You Never Know,' a gloriously anthemic track that is the
- album's first single. The disc culminates with 'Everlasting Everything' a
- piano-driven ballad with delicate sonic nuances that lyrically celebrates love's
- endurance.
- Note: The "Advance" has lower bitrates... Enjoy the retail
