Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 I think we are going to be in for something very, very interesting Link to post Share on other sites
Autumnteeth Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Great. Anyone who has seen I Am Trying to Break Your Heart can relate to the scene where the hipster dufusasks Jeff if YHF is more like AM or I forgot what else he said because it is so cringeworthy. All that aside, and breaking a huge cardinal rule, this sounds like what people were expecting YHF to be. Very happy HF sounds like it does, but until I saw this video the only version of this song I heard was an accoustic thing with no teeth. I hate fall and winter but am actually excited for September to grab this album. On a total threadjack theme, which probably belongs more on Wilco heard out and about, I was in a bar on the jersey shore when a station doing a remote broadcast played I Might. The conversation among the people in the know (the three Wilco fans in a sea of Snooki admirers) the talk was of Wilco selling out to become popular and to get airplay and how they can't support a band that drops their values for airplay. I was outnumbered (and out tattoeed, a fight wouldn't go well) but if this album turns out to bring them to the general populace that would be great, they have earned the respect of the masses, not just the few in the know.

I think there was a lot of talk about how their management/record label was going to be run out of MA, so it is kind of their second home now. Link to post Share on other sites

From what we can tell so far it worked well this time.Didn't they do some mixing in New England? I think I remember a tweet or FB post or something just before Solid Sound that said they were mixing somewhere in New England. But yeah, wherever they came up with all this, I love it. They just seem to be particularly inspired. And nice to see Pat coming into his own. Link to post Share on other sites

I live in Portland and walked all over the place looking for them. No luck.But yeah Ludwig and the people at Gateway Mastering do really awesome work for local musicians and also big names.

Ghost of Electricity Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 My f*%king sound card blew up and I can watch this but not hear it. Based on the comments above i'll be in for a treat when I get to heart it (at work tomorrow?) but I'm well aware of the danger of high expectations, so please, someone tell me this sucks.
