Did you hear the stream of the album that Wilco had on their website for a few days? I really really enjoyed it the few times I listened to it and am seriously having withdrawals now that I'm not able to listen to it. One of the songs on the new album, "I'll Fight," is already one of my favorite Wilco songs.
I can't even find my copy of Stand Up (that's how little I cared for it). This is their best work since Before These Crowded Streets.
Hey, that's great. Anyway, I may have to give this album a listen. The last DMB album I've actually liked was Busted Stuff. As long as Carter is still drumming, I'm a fan.
i think if busted stuff had come out without the lillywhite sessions ever being leaked, it'd be more highly regarded. it still has five really kickass songs though - grey street, you never know, raven, bartender, big eyed fish. loving this even more today. there's not a weak track on it. and why i am being even another tribute to grux (not to mention the opening sax solo) makes me love it even more. i just wish they had waited to come to houston until later this summer.
before these crowded streets may be my favorite album of all time. i'm really excited about picking this up.
