Wilco – Side With the Seeds

Written on November 14, 2009 by in Music

sky blue sky Wilco Side With the SeedsI have two albums that I was disappointed by in 2009.  I don’t say that about many albums, because I can generally find something redeeming about everything, but I expected much more from these two bands – The Decemberists and Wilco.  I’ve talked about The Decemberists before on the blog, so I won’t go over that again.  The Wilco album seemed almost rushed to me.

It may have been that I couldn’t get over the whole Wilco [The Album] Wilco Side With the Seeds and “Wilco (The Song)” – because on it’s face, I found that annoying.  But really, after Sky Blue Sky, the band would have had to release Astral Weeks Wilco Side With the Seeds in order for me to be truly impressed.  Maybe I haven’t listened to it enough; maybe I’m missing something.

I bring this up only because “Side With the Seeds” cropped up the other day while I was listening, and it was breathtaking.  I don’t doubt that Wilco will regain form – everyone is due a misstep, I suppose – and until they do, I’ll be content with Sky Blue Sky.
