...that Nirvana might have someday made if Kurt Cobain had lived another 8-10 years, stayed on the tortured genius curve, and acquired the vision to develop the group beyond a grunge trio.

[Halsey12]

made the band lots of money via Volkswagen.

[blindgonzo]

reminds me that i'm human

[Drazil]

...my grandmother likes.

[tongue-tied]

dropped Wilco quite a few spots in my imaginary list of most interesting bands.

[Wilco Worshipper]

helped me make new friends, brought me back to the board (after 6 LONG years) and has given me an outlet that I very sorely needed

[W(TF)]

Opens with "maybe" and closes with "yeah".

[mountain bed]

...I like to put on when I'm sober.

[Artifex]

you listen to when your ALREADY in a good mood. Any other Wilco album is great for listening to when your in a shitty mood to make you feel better.

[socbret]

Comes in second so far behind The National "Boxer" on my favorite albums of 2007 list.

[zebra]

...got me through one of the worst weeks of my life while I drove cross country.

[giraffo]

is controversial in it's ability to be easy on the ears.

Heard something very similar about SBS said about Elliott Smith actually. For me is the album that's been the album of 2007 so far, even though I'd probably call it their fourth best record, it's still has a lot of amazing moments on it, and it grows better with reapeated listens.

[markosis]

made me realize, furthermore, that Wilco is the best rock and roll band since The Band.

[lovenmercy]

adds yet another plane to an already multi-faceted band.

[froggie]

AM

BT

ST

YHF

AGIB

KT

SBS

[dbt]

... I've listened to the most this year.

[dixiecupdrinker]

+1

 

[entropy]

...has a shitload of birds on the cover.

[W(TF)]

Conjures up echoes of Pink Floyd, Nick Drake, Neil Young, and Little Feat - sometimes all in the same song.

[c53x12]

...didn't raise an eyebrow when played in front of my 70-year-old inlaws and all their grandkids at a family reunion.

[W(TF)]

....should be played LOUD. And often.
