  1. I, for one agree with you.....halfway. AGIB and SBS are starting to look like companion albums to me. Their similarities being their very organic, live analog recording sound. And the level of expressiveness in the playing. Thematically and mood wise AGIB seems like its looking down a long dark tunnel, there is definitely some light but its pretty dark stuff, Sky Blue Sky seems to step out (excuse the pun). They're two different moods that compliment each other extremely well.

     

     

    I totally agre. To my mind if you hold up 'muzzle of bees' and "side w/ seeds" the point is crystalized...

     

    "half of it's you half of it's me" has turned into "I'll side with you if you side with me". What was abstract is now physical. The contentedness that AGIB longed for has finally been realized in this record. Dissonance has given way to sweetness.

    PitchFork Review will read: "With Sky Blue Sky, the once loveably lacontic frontman Tweedy mines the dregs of the Wilco mystique, sending the band to the scrapheap of hipster darling doldrums" .... er, or some nonsensical crap like that.
