Try listening to it backwards.

The melody is very similar. I thought the same thing when I first heard OOO, but I couldn't remember the name of IAFA so I had to look it up. I probably haven't heard ST in 2 years.

Bingo. I get the impression many of the songs on SBS are going to be tweaked for extended live jamming.

I'm totally surprised anyone can feel that way about Nel's playing on SBS. IMO he's plays it pretty straight, I was afraid the album would feature the "other" Nel's. If you've ever seen his solo stuff, you know the toy guitar freakout stuff, he can get pretty out there. I think Nel's actually plays closer to the way Jay Bennett would have approached SBS than anyone expected. But you are right on about Jeff's playing, he's really "calmed down" since AGIB. His playing has improved alot in 3 years.

Without an effin' doubt

I take it you don't play guitar.

I googled Ikea, I'd gladly trade my south western styled shit for some of that. Anyone know what band I should like if I buy my clothes at JC Penny? Well not if I do.

I picked this up tonight, great freakin' album. If you buy it at Best Buy it comes with a bonus EP.

KBCO, it's KCUV by the way .

I don't think any other current band comes close to Wilco. The closest comparison I can make as far as quality of music and the perpetual winning streak would be Led Zeppelin. Every Zep album was great start to finish, Wilco shares that feat. Never a bad song, never a stinker album, each album different from the last but consistantly building a legacy.

I hear bits and pieces of every previous Wilco album on SBS. I think the first 3 songs are interchangable with any song on AGIB. The song SBS works on AM or BT. Side With The Seeds mights fits in on AGIB or ST. Shake It Off could have been a BT track. Tracks 7-9 would have been fine on any of the 3, ST-\YHF\AGIB. Walken could have been on anything but YHF. What Light is pretty universal, that song wouldn't have sounded out of place on any Wilco album but it really would work on AM. The last track sounds like ST's spookier cuts but easily could have worked on either YHF or AGIB.

The fact that I have been playing the crap out of SBS since Sat will not keep me from doing that 5/15.

Hell yeah! This whacked out station on 365 turned me on to her, it's called Secret Surfin Spot. It's been this one for me today.

I don't think so. Those guys are very different as guitarists and both have different strengths and styles.

I assume ALTWYS is a mainstay considering it's Jeff's big solo guitar spot, it's freakin' cool too so I hope it stays. I'd like to see more AM stuff in the setlist I think it fits in nicely with SBS. The guitar solo from Pick Up The Change is nice and smooth jazzish.

There are two stations in Denver that play Wilco stuff but I've yet to hear anything from the new album. Probably because I don't usually listen to those stations.

What's IKEA? Oh crap I'll just google it. Can I really be a Wilco fan if I live in a house and drive a Ford? I'm guilty of the Starbucks thing though, I don't drink coffee but I do stop by there for an iced tea in the summer from time to time. Thanks for posting that review, I almost forgot The Search was released today. I'll see if they have it on the counter at Starbucks on the way home. I picked up the new Shins album at Whole Foods last weekend so *fingers crossed*.

Hell yeah!

I have a feeling you are mostly alone in that thinking, especially the Summerteeth part. I would like to see Wilco eventually go to a setlist that includes a quiet acoustic break in the middle a-la 1975-77 era Zep tours. With each tours setlist being comprised of alternating "classic" Wilco rockers to open and close the show and what ever album is current filling in the rest of the show along with the must hear standards. That said I won't be sad if Misunderstood takes a setlist hiatus.

Oh you... Yeah me too .

I'm not really in the grower group, the album sounded great to me the first time. It's interesting to read all the different reviews, no doubt this album affects everyone in different ways. For me I was immediately excited by what I heard, it reminded me of all the early 70's albums I love. At times it evoked sounds and memories of the first time I heard albums like Mott The Hoople's Wildlife or Brinsly Schwarz' Silver Pistol. Then after 10 spins I realized the album just sounds like another Wilco album. After 20 spins it really stated to make sense, this album really draws equally from every

Nel Cline is GOOD, I'm really starting to dig his playing on SBS. Twenty or so spins later I'm still diggin' his guitar work. I was convinced he would be the undoing of Wilco at one point, my fear was with him and Kotche in the band Wilco would be too out there. But he really seems to be a positive pivot for Wilco. When he came on board things changed in a good way. I really hope he sticks around for another album or two. Same with Glenn, his Bonhamesque rolls and heavy handed beats are killer on SBS. I'm just delighted with SBS.

Me too, that song is great. What Light is amazing as well.

I don't like Pink Floyd.
