keeprighton2 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 That's an odd comment, CD is actually the most 'Dad Rock' song on the album. I wonder how much Pitchfork will rate this, 3.2 or something? I mean, even on their fan board this album gets panned. Its only slighlty dadrock but he gets out of jail with a great vocal. Sonny is dadrock - fuckin awful cheese Link to post Share on other sites
gogo Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 should we just get it over with and have threads up for each song? wait, was that snarky?A thread for each song, no problem. But I'm about to go seriously merge-happy on some of the rest of these "general" threads. Link to post Share on other sites
isadorah Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 A thread for each song, no problem. But I'm about to go seriously merge-happy on some of the rest of these "general" threads. get 'em gogo!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
W(TF) Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Its only slighlty dadrock but he gets out of jail with a great vocal. Sonny is dadrock - fuckin awful cheese Are you for real? Sunny has a Loose Fur hook, and at least some relation lyrically to Monday. It's a great Wilco pop song. But I'm a dad, wtf would I know. Link to post Share on other sites
Central Scrutinizer Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 A thread for each song, no problem. But I'm about to go seriously merge-happy on some of the rest of these "general" threads.I was one of the guilty parties of starting a separate thread. After 34 pages, I was getting lost in it all. I apologize for confounding things. I also apologize for getting too analytical. Certainly didn't intend to be pretentious. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Speed Racer Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 A thread for each song, no problem. But I'm about to go seriously merge-happy on some of the rest of these "general" threads. Thanks. Now I have "2 become 1" (Spice Girls, yes) in my head. Link to post Share on other sites
KansasAl Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I just want to go on record as saying I am very very pleased with this CD. I'll save you the review for when I feel like hearing myself talk (or in this case type) Link to post Share on other sites

keeprighton2 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Thank God. And enough already with the "dad rock" BS! At least come up with something original. But that's what it is, no? Two very uptempo songs - Bull Black Nova and Sunny Feeling do not sound like they've been made in the same decade let alone by the same band on the same album. I want the albums to be a 'whole' , not flying off in all styles and directions..... Link to post Share on other sites

Spawn's dad Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 why do new threads keep popping up that could all easily fit under the 1 album spoilers thread? They should make you a moderator. Link to post Share on other sites

uncool2pillow Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I haven't been here since the album started streaming. Listened to it 3 times. I like it a lot. I don't think it's the best collection of songs, but it's great music. Best harmonies since ST, not as many hooks. Can't wait to buy it! Link to post Share on other sites
gogo Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I've merged the "when all is said and done" thread into this one. I've left the "lost their edge" and "fanboy" threads separate (for now). Link to post Share on other sites

anthony Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I am still digesting the record. It's gonna have to sit with me for a few weeks before I think I can formulate a Real Opinion on W(TA). I rarely like records on the first few spins. That said, I do have one initial thought: W(TA) has made me appreciate SBS more than I thought I did. Link to post Share on other sites

SeattleC Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I want the albums to be a 'whole' , not flying off in all styles and directions..... I want a new Wilco album every 6 months. But seriously, Being There is all over the map, and this is too, but I like that. I hate being postive though, but the sun is shining in Seattle today for a change, so what the hell.
