The new, self entitled, Wilco CD has been released just in the wake of the fan excitement over the bands live DVD Ashes of American Flags. The DVD captured the mood and music of the Wilcox 2008 bus journey across the US. It gave fans a great look at the band, the US and left them wanting more. Being a long time fan of Wilco, I was concerned about this album, considering the controversy when Warner Bros. rejected their submission of the album. Along with the numerous other Wilco fans, through emails and letter, I let them know that more of Wilco was just what we wanted! It was difficult to believe that their reputation could be doubted, but given the industry it is unfortunately who you know and not how talented you are, at times. That aside, with a slight delay Wilco's seventh album is finally here and show the musical talent and maturity of the group from the first track straight to the last. Many assumed that this self entitled album would be similar to the sound of Yankee Foxtrot Hotel, however it is more influenced by pop music of the 60's and 70's. It has more of the traditional sounds from Sky Blue Sky with tracks like "Sunny Feeling" and "You Never Know." Wilco has a mix of guitar strumming, big choruses, incredible slide guitar and the groups first ever doubt "You and I." One of the most amazing things about this album is that no matter how similar the music is, each track has a uniqueness all its own. This self entitled album from Wilco has some of the old sound you are used to with a new twist! Article Source: http://www.ArticleBlast.com |
