Standing O didn't sound great to me, but Dawned on Me, from five rows back, blew me away. The quality on the YouTube video that surfaced wasn't that great, but I thought it sounded awesome. Reminds me of some of their older stuff.

 

Also, even though the vids are blocked, you can d/l MP3 versions of Born Alone and Dawned on Me from the festival here: http://www.youaintnopicasso.com/2011/06/27/mp3-wilco-debut-two-new-songs-live-dawned-on-me-born-alone/

 

As for the title, I'm kind of indifferent but did prefer Get Well Soon Everybody.

And see I like "Standing O" better than "Dawned on Me." Though it is hard to hear the words... I just like the melody better, I guess.

What's wrong with the home page now... being updated?

Get Well Soon Everybody is a much better album title than The Whole Love.

I agree, but oh well... as long as the music is good, I don't care about the title.

What do those who have listened think of that new untitled song or "Standing O," as some have called it?

Also, has there been any word on whether or not this will be a double album?

Here's what I think our count on songs played live (that we have recordings of) from The Whole Love, let me know if I'm missing anything!

 

1. Open Your Mind - played solo a few times

2. Born Alone - solo and full band

3. I Might - we have the recording

4. The Whole Love - played at SS

5. Dawned On Me - played at SS

6. Unknown new one - played at SS

 

And we know of the songs:

7. The Art Of Almost - we think portions of the recording were on Vimeo

8. Song For Jane Smiley's Boyfriend - according to the Spin article

I also remember reading somewhere about a song called "Capital City."

How did the other new songs sound?

Looks like there were two new songs played tonight. How did the other new one sound?

Now 93XRT Chicago just debuted it and I missed it again!

Cool!

 

Edit: They played the studio version or was it live?

Studio

Where'd you hear that?

Jeff was live on WRSI 93.9 The River this morning and announced it. They also played "I Might," but I missed it.

I hope the interview and song will be archived!

So, the album will be called "The Whole Love."

Now that it's mastered I wonder when they will let us know if it's a double album or not. Big decision, big decision.

Really hoping for a double album with this one.

Question for Rain Dog Too: Are you someone who checks out Wilco things a lot because you found the single's image and these videos? Did you check Zoran's page regularly for updates because he did do some video(s) on Wilco over the past year? Or was his page private before?

I wouldn't say I check out Wilco things "a lot," but with the upcoming record, I would say I've been searching for news (on the new album) more so than usual. But in both these instances, with the Single's album art and the videos, I found them accidently. With the album art, I was searching for a release date and came across that, and with the videos I honestly don't remember what I was searching for, but I found one of them posted on a blog and when I looked for where it came from I found the rest. I didn't even know Zoran had a page until finding these videos.

Pretty sure that's Art Of Almost that the band is working on with Nels shredding. At least it fits the Spin description very well.

No idea what the song is on Loft 2.

That's what song I was thinking, as well! And maybe the Loft 2 song is "Whole Love."

Those are sweet. I hear some exciting sounds coming out too. Some kind of drony kraut-rock beast getting hatched and that "Open Up Your Mind" song Jeff has been playing solo.

Yeah, and I'm also loving the one called "Loft 2!"

Came across these videos by Wilco photographer Zoran Orlic of what appears to be the band working on songs for the for new album!

Very exciting. A new Tom Waits album is always a reason to smile.

Beat me to it!

Word has it the album will be released before November!
