Wilco - Ode To Joy (October 4, 2019) Album • Page 3

Oh wow forgot this was out this week, hell yeah

 

Is this out there yet or no?

 

this is gonna be like a top 10 record of the year, huh? loving the pre-release singles

 

Cannot wait to hear this start to finish. So much good music coming out, it’s hard to keep track of.

 

gonna be dope for sure

 

I mean that’s about as tight of a late night performance as you’ll find.

Love when veteran bands come back like, ahem, remember we are still the goats.

 

Genuinely their best album since Sky Blue Sky.

 

Wow. The experimental elements on this album really bring back memories of listening to YHF for the first time.

They never left. But they’re back with this record in the best way possible.

 

Yeah, so I think this is their best since a ghost is born. Fantastic album.

 

“Before Us” really reminds me of “Radio Cure”. I think a lot of this record reminds me of “Radio Cure”

 

only two songs in but i already adore this

 

Hold Me Anyway heck yes, wonderful

 

something about An Empty Corner is like hurting my heart real bad. his voice in the chorus, that kind of hushed, raw honesty

This really didn't do much for me on first listen, I'll have to dive back in a few more times.

 

Something about his delivery on songs like "Before Us" (and "Someone to Lose") give me Modest Mouse vibes, I love it

 

yeah, this rules. easily their best in a decade and top 3 of the year for me, so far. an empty corner and quiet amplifier ruled.

 

you. I like you.

 

this passage is so true:

The dreary and understated Schmilco was the least essential, least compulsively listenable Wilco release to date, an album that took work to love from a band whose albums used to be spellbinding on impact. But like most of Tweedy’s late-career work, it was a grower, and in hindsight it may have been the sound of a legendary artist rebooting before a renaissance.

 

Yeah Quiet Amplifier is neat

 

my guy

 

schmilco felt like the kinda songwriting jeff would perfect on his own with warm/(er). this album feels like taking that songwriting and letting nels, glenn and mikael go wild with it.

 

"we were lucky" >>>>>>>

 

Their discography is insanely good. Nothing even close to a bad record.

 

Mmmm this is great. I’ve struggled to full click with this band, but this album is pretty immediate.
