Queen Amaranthine Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 You've got motherfucking Glenn Kotche in the band, LET HIM BANG ON SOME SHIT. And not just in a song or two. Fans aren't always happy with change, and this brought to mind some debate on this board eons ago about who is the better drummer, Glenn or Ken Coomer? Not everyone was at ease with Glenn, at least at first. He was the drummer when I first heard Wilco and is the only drummer I've seen with the band live, plus I've seen him solo too. I think he's creative and amazing to see in action. But I don't have the history in hearing past drummers live or the older albums when they were new. So is it Glenn or Coomer...BT or SBS...all about perspective. And if others don't like what we individually like, it doesn't need to keep us from enjoying what we do, for whatever reasons we do. I'm so zen today. Someone mentioned Tweedy's songwriting ability post-rehab. Somewhat related, I remember reading something (wish I could remember what it was, exactly) awhile back about Edgar Allan Poe and his use of strong visual imagery in his stories and poems. It is believed that Poe had a strong right-brain dominance, evident through his use of vivid words/visual imagery, a hallmark of right brain. Poe was alcoholic, and that same article I read said that strong right-brain-dominant thinkers have a tendency toward addiction and self-destruction. Thinking of lyrics in albums pre-rehab, Jeff's lyrics overall have far more vivid visuals and cryptic symbolism than they do post-rehab. So, does addiction have an impact on the brain, and songwriting? For better or worse? Or is the lyric shift a conscious choice to do something new? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Speed Racer Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I don't ever, EVER recall anyone saying they didn't like Glenn. All the talk I remember was that Ken was well-suited to power-pop, and that he was dismissed in a shitty way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
