a ghost is born

I am so excited to see Wilco on friday. i've been a fan for a few years, and i'm just hoping that the concert will be great. I hope i'm not disappointed by the performance. they kick serious ass in my opinion, but, hey, its just my opinion.

taken from a review of their last album
"But a rock band isn’t supposed to hold your hand. A rock band is supposed to kick your ass. I love A Ghost Is Born because it makes my ears bleed and then swabs them with cotton. "

enough said. i'm not gonna get nerdy and talk about their sonic qualities or anything, but If you haven't heard anything from Wilco. I suggest listening to the following albums summerteeth-a beatle-esque sounding album, still having flourishes of country. A.M. - straight up alt-country. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot- textures, soundscapes, dissonant guitars, counter melodies. plain beautiful in a sort of creepy way. A ghost is born- the newest album, takes previous albums, considers the parts, throws it all in a blender, then decides to throw the shit away and make something new, yet familiar. Being There- plain double album sweetness
jesus, thats every wilco album

i hate writing about music... i don't have the vocabulary to it justice... so, I'm gonna stop now.
