Wilco Sky Blue Sky

American Music | Hate it Here | Jeffy Tweedy | Sky Blue Sky | Wilco

Wilco is quickly becoming America's best touring Rock n Roll band. While you might hear some arguments for Pearl Jam or My Morning Jacket, Jeff Tweedy and Co. have found something special. After very successful albums like Being There and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, they have made their masterpiece, "Sky Blue Sky". Moving further away from their acoustic roots, Sky Blue Sky sounds more like Abbey Road then then Jayhawks. Tweedy's lyrics have always had that Paul McCartney feel to them, and this hasn't changed a bit. The epic "Hate in Here" on the new album combines his heart-felt Beatles-esq lyrics like "what I am gonna do when I run out of shirts to fold, what am I gonna do when I run out of lawn to mow", with body-moving walls of sound. You won't be able to stop yourself from screaming the chorus, and you'll find yourself playing the air guitar, air piano and head bashing all together in this soon to be classic. Pick up "Sky Blue Sky" for Tweedy's unparalleled songsmanship, and you will find yourself something truly amazing. Find a sample of their music at www.myspace.com/Wilco.

Wilco

With the Beatles being by far my favorite band ever...no band has came as close to them as Wilco as of late.

The MusicNut says...DOO IT!
