Gobias Industries Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 you mean a half-step? No, Tweedy wasn't quite a half-step off. It wasn't a whole half-step flat, just always slightly flat. Hence, quarter-tone. Quarter-tone is a legitimate musical term, if that's your question. It's half of a half step (obviously). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 calm down, there are plenty of us that are inspired by not only the music but the lyrics and the voice. The album may not be as experimental or as big as Yankee/Ghost, but it's still filled with what makes Wilco so great. Heart. I couldn't think of a better album to listen too while I had breakfest and enjoyed my coffee this morning. There is plenty of love on this record, but cynical ears will most likely refuse to hear it. another solid record from one of my favorite bands.See, what you're doing there is you're saying that if you don't like the record, there's something wrong with you. Fuck you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gobias Industries Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 wait - am I missing the pump organ? Where is that in the record? Sprinkled throughout, mostly fills, and in the break of You Are My Face (very evident in there). Just how I like it (thanks to Bob Dylan's electric years). You really have to listen for it. Having seen Pat do organ live, I was practically searching for it. And I found Paradise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OOO Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Hammocks are very comfortable. I would enjoy listening to most music while relaxing in one. Weirdos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jesusetc84 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 See, what you're doing there is you're saying that if you don't like the record, there's something wrong with you. Fuck you. Exactly. I think this record sucks. I'm entitled to this opinion, and it's kind of irritating that the Church of Tweedy doesn't want any dissenting opinions. I'm not saying it sucks to piss people off. I'm really sad that the record does nothing for me, that I waited three years for something sub-Wilco. And that's my right to feel that way, and to express that opinion. And I do not hate Wilco for the record; I've spent hours of my life trying to turn people onto them who hadn't heard of them. I've bought friends Wilco records as presents before. I have like 3 Wilco based AIM handles. I'm a big fan, and have been. But I just don't like this. just yankin' ya tail ::vomits:: ugh...too hung over for a drink.

Sir Stewart Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I'm starting to think Paul McCartney wrote "Hate It Here" for McCartney but new it was best sung by Jeff Tweedy 37 years in the future.Or, "Hate It Here" sounds like Badfinger 2007. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I can't believe how many people hate Wilco... Or, "Hate It Here" sounds like Badfinger 2007. I don't know if thats supposed to be a bad thing or not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is a Wilco message board, it's pretty obvious you have entered the Church of Tweedy. I love him, no denial here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jesusetc84 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I can't believe how many people hate Wilco... My favorite songwriters are Lennon, McCartney and Bob Dylan. All three have made albums I don't like, and songs I think are terrible. The fact that you don't like a single record a band makes doesn't mean you hate them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 judging by that response, I would say that is pretty safe to assume. Go take a cold shower or something. How old are you?Once again, you ignore what I said. You said: I can't see how any Tweedy-head (whatever that is) doesn't love this album.I said: The way that is possible is if someone listens to the music and comes to the (entirely valid) conclusion that he does not like the music.You ignored my point and said: "There is plenty of love on this record, but cynical ears will most likely refuse to hear it," implying that one is not being honest (i.e., looking to find fault) if one doesn't hear the record as you hear it.I called you on it and said a bad word. Why is there something wrong with me if I don't love the new Wilco album? I'm 31, and I've already had a shower today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is a Wilco message board, it's pretty obvious you have entered the Church of Tweedy. I love him, no denial here. Yeah I love Wilco. If I did I wouldn't have blown like 500 dollars on Wilco stuff over the years. Albums, side projects, and concert tickets out of my poverty (I'm a college student...yeah money's rough.) I wouldn't have walked 5 miles with a sinus infection to see Wilco at Jazz fest a few years ago. I wouldn't have waited on a street alone where I could've gotten mugged just to meet the band. I LOVE Wilco. But I do not love this record. I'm sorry if I'm coming across as an asshole; I'm kind of bitter about this record. Maybe I don't have a right to be, but I am.

bobbob1313 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I once walked 15 miles in the snow to see Jeff Tweedy play in a hammock. But the show got cancelled because Jeff couldn't stop getting tangled in the hammock and he fell out. It was rough on everyone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
