Damn, I've never really thought about this trajectory issue before. It makes me wonder how many otherwise equal records are either glorified or shit on based on which side of the respective artist's masterpiece they fall on. People use the word transitional for works heading up to artists' best works and fall-offs for works on the other side.

I really like "Deeper Down" and "One Wing" from Wilco the Album.

My issue with SBS is how it sounds. It just sounds crappy.

Man. What it might come down for me is I like my wilco raw and ragged. Dirty. Tweedy as a lead guitarist is able to create that. Nels is just too fucking talented and amazing to be so raw it feels some times. Tweedy just has something else. Anger.

I think about this a lot as AGIB is easily my favorite album of theirs. Sometimes I think that they just haven't found a way to use Nels. Like it would be wasteful to just use him to color certain moments of songs since he can do so much more. So his presence is almost forced on you.

This feels way looser and off-the-cuff than I've ever heard the band, or at least this iteration of it. It reminds me a bit of the Loose Fur stuff I've heard. I'm not done, but I like it thus far.
