Being There

okay to listen to

You know those in-game radio stations in GTA? Listening to this album feels like I've tuned into a sad-alt-country-rock one. Not particularly bad, just interminably long and better as background music.

Sad one, but got some bright moments

Lowkey not it.

they can play....he can't sing..

Nothing special here.

This wasn't bad, but I can't honestly imagine ever wanting to listen to it again. It's just... not bad. That's it.

Good music, and good lyrics, wasted on a soulless, lifeless, monotonous vocalist. You’d be happy if you walked into a bar and this were the house band, but if you paid for this you’d want your money back.

Quite passive, didn’t really jump out and grab me with anythin..

Lots of variability. Some good some bad. Not my thing.

This does nothing for me. There are a few decent songs on it, and the rest are unobjectionable, but it doesn't stir me in any way

Enjoyable but not a standout.

First two songs are an absolute bore. Monday is a "Springsteen" song Red-Eyed and Blue has the first interesting melody.

Not my vibe but I know it's well loved

I'm writing this review before I've finished the album which I don't normally do, but I can already tell at the end of first disk that I'm just not feeling it and this is pretty lame. I probably should like it more than I do, mid 90s alternative, guitar heavy - my favourite genres/time! But it's just boring, meandering, weird in places (but not in a good way), and has a twangy country bend to it - it is all over the place. Maybe it could have been something if they'd had a better producer who could have edited back a bit better and thrown the banjo in the bin? Dunno - I guess theres a reason I've never heard of them Finished it, it didn't improve

Very dull.

Listenable. But not raveable.

It's very country sounding. Not a fan.

Kinda bland

Inconsistent at best. The rockers are decent but there are too many country tinged songs that bring the album down. Also, completely unnecessary for it to be a double album. But hipsters are pretentious and full of themselves.

So middle of the road you can easily forget it’s even playing. Just listen to Eels - you’ll have a much better time 1.9

Liked the country sound of the last few tracks...efen though I am not a country music fan. The rest was just bland for me.

Perfect background music for coffeeshops. Well played, varied alt country, with a voice that suits the music. Probably a highlight in the genre. However, it doesn't resonate with me at all. On the contrary. When I feel like this music, I'd rather play something to snap me out of it. And despite the variety, it bores me. Favorite song: outtasite

Nice slow song in there but the rest didn’t float my boat.

humanmusic.mp3

Very mundane

В основном ждал, пока закончится

Lowkey whiney, did like the cta song though 2/5

Second try at these guys after being mean to *Yankee Hotel Foxtrot*, this time I'll write while listening. ...Plonky plonk style indie rock. Good for a cloudy day, but I can't focus to this and it was a double album. "Monday" was good.

No thanks

Ok, a bit dull

I've always seen this group as the quintessential Millennial band. Respect for trying to keep their sound fresh for all these years, but this album, like many of this era, sounds like a lot of borrowing and not a lot of innovating. It was listenable but uninteresting, varied but not grounded. It struck me as an album liked by people who don't like music that much.

jesus fucking christ why was this SO LONG. I've gotten a string of long albums. Why does anyone think they are good enough to justify an almost 80 minute run time? It was the same song written over and over again. Cut it out or just split into two albums.

Took me two days to get through this album. It's too uninteresting to be this long. I couldn't enjoy listening to it at all and it felt like a chore.

was too long and boring liked few songs but nothing really outstanding happened

Forgettable

It is so rare for me to hear a double album and be excited. Most of the time there is no reason for the album to be as long as it is. This is an example of that. Choose the best songs and go with it.

Didn't do much for me, not a style I enjoy

I lik some Wilco, but to me this album is not very interesting for being so pretentious.

Wilco...sounds like I've heard this name. Well I misread the date of this album. I thought it said 1966. 1996 was a golden year. Kinda digging this. It's a bit country a bit grunge.

Such a long album, not really my cup of tea.

Only got 1/3 of the way through

way too long, sure great tracks but i had no right to be that long

Жанр альтернативного кантри (не я выдумал!) взорвал слегка мой мозг названием. На деле же... Ну почти половина кантри о любви, другая половина альт рок с легким вкраплением частей кантри (типо бубна) и тоже о любви. А еще я понял что мне нравится кантри где человек сам поет и играет. Здесь я прям чувствовал что это 2 разные дорожки

Milquetoast indie rock. Offensively inoffensive

Right, ok then, that took a fair while, could have crocheted a jumper if I'd thought of it. Anyone out there at zero hour 9:00AM, thanks for reading. First thing to say before you take that last breath: don't bother with this. There's this second division of pop artists who get a lot of attention just for being a little serious, a little eclectic and young Jeffrey is one of them. Firstly, ditch the band sport and just be the solo artist you want to be, you wanna be Tom Petty you. The band, cor blimey guvnor how many times have we heard this type of stuff, Green on Red have a lot to answer for (sorry Yankee Dan if you are out there somewhere waiting for touchdown). Jeff, he's not the man he thinks he is. The country tunes are nice and the lyrics work well within the expectations of that format, not quite losing your dog and wife to the whiskey, but he gets what he has to do. So Jasper FForde fans if you have to listen to some of this then Far Far Away Forget the Flowers What's the World got in Store Say and You Miss Me are ok. But really why bother, go and have a whiskey and stare at pictures of your dog instead. Now, I can hear the faint tap tap tap of the distant flutterverse going into meltdown cause I've bagged Wilco, but before I end up being cancelled (maybe I already am) I do like the stuff they did with B.Bragg, but that's cause of two great talents in the Bard from Barking and of course Woody..

I liked some of the tracks, others less so.

Ehh, pretty average.

Meh

zz

Dette var en lang og kjedelig opplevelse. Plutselig ble det country også? Nevnte jeg at det var langt? Hadde albumet vært omtrent halvparten så langt kunne det kanskje fått en treer

Way too long

I’ve never understood the obsession with Wilco. They may be one of the most boring bands I’ve ever heard. This album is also way too long. I honestly can’t remember how any of the songs go.

Music was really good. Dug the banjos, other instruments, all flowed well together. Lyrics were generic and actually quite bad. Shame, could have been a great album. Maybe an instrumental instead of those grade school level lyrics. Could have been 3.5 now 2.5

It was okay, nothing made me want to hit repeat. After a while it just droned on and with it being so long it made it into more of a chore than anything.

Really solid Indie/Folk-Rock but no such thing that needs to fill this list

It's okay. Outta Mind (Outta Sight) was nice, but otherwise this album is already outta my mind and I finished listening to it three minutes ago.

Alternative country rock, a bit too long, not feeling it.

Day 5 Misunderstood - 4 - Boring Far, Far Away - 5 - 2 songs in and I have already decided this guy has a boring voice. I like some of the guitar stuff he's doing though Monday - 7 - more upbeat song is nice, the background singers during the chorus certainly help and I really like the saxophone (I think it's a saxophone, I'm chronically bad with knowing instruments) I really hope this is where we lean towards more during the rest of this album. Outtasite (Outta Mind) - 6 - like the last song but less fun Forget the Flowers - 5 Red-Eyed and Blue - 6 - would have been 5 if they didn't add the whistling I Got You - 6 - I liked the song except once again the voice just isn't good. It doesn't help that the lyrics aren't anything to write home about. What's the World Got in Store - 3 - It reminds me of the song Adam Sandler plays in The Wedding Singer except a lot worse Hotel Arizona - 5 - not much to talk about here although I like the idea of each state having a song about their hotel Say You Miss Me - 6 - this song actually does have some things going for it. I like the instrumentals and I like the "oo oo oo" from the background singers. I'd be hard pressed to say this is a good song but it's one of the better ones on the album. Sunken Treasure - 4 - too long. doesn't justify its existence. his voice doesn't really work for this type of song. Someday Soon - 5 - it's short. gotta appreciate the short ones on these types of albums. Outta Mind (Outta Sight) - 5 - the voice actually sounds better in this one than ever, the rest of the song just misses the mark Someone Else's Song - 3 - zzz mimimimimi honk shoo honk shoo 😴😴 Kingpin - 6 - a bit more of a bitter sound than what has frankly been a bunch of redneck hillbilly shit sung by someone who can't sing. The instruments still hard carry here. [Was I] In Your Dreams - 5 Why Would You Wanna Live - 6 - moreso than usual, the instruments are good here. I also like the story going on in the song. The Lonely 1 - 2 - the instruments are boring on this one. It's just a boring track over his less than impressive voice. Genuinely nothing going for this song. Dreamer in My Dreams - 5 Overall: This album could have been a fun country album or, if they really tried, a good alt album. However, the singers voice doesn't match what the instruments are trying to do. I don't know how we're being there when I personally don't think this album ever got there in the first place. 94/190 or 49%

2.5. Pretty good but no exciting

Högt och lågt! Börjar bra med 'Misunderstanding', och speciellt med 'Far, Far Away', som är precis lagomt mycket country för mig. De lugnare spåren är absolut bäst (också 'Sunken Treasure'), tyvärr är det oftare mer en ointressant mix mellan rock och country. Ofta rätt "twangingt", på rätt sätt i 'Forget the Flowers', på fel sätt i 'Someday Soon'. 'The Lonely 1' är fin. Här hade albumet kunnat sluta, i stället för med den hemska 'Dreamer in My Dreams'. Och, viktigt, det är för lååååååångt. Tröttnar. Med det här tråkiga soundet är en timme och en kvart på tok för mycket. Bästa låt: Far, Far Away.

The first few tracks sound quite decent, but then it gets boring quite quickly. Sitting through a double album of this was therefore not particularly enjoyable.

I love Wilco. I have most of their albums and have seen them multiple times. I'm sure this album is on here because it established their sound. It's good, don't get me wrong. But, I'd rather listen to YHF, A Ghost is Born, or Sky Blue Sky. This one has a few amazing tunes, but a lot of kind of boring songs. And it's a looooong album. I actually gave up on 1001 albums for awhile because I couldn't finish this one.

I don’t know what it is meant to be. It was all over the shop. I tried to enjoy it but it was a chore.

boring as wilco

Alright but I felt like it went wayyy too long

Lungo e abbastanza noioso, anche se sembra più moderno di quello che è

A weird mix between some cheesy pop songs, country and blues. I did like some parts of this album, but it lacks cohesion.

Most songs aren't that bad but the album feels incoherent and drags on a bit too long

It has plenty of good songs but it's way too long and lacks any form of cohesion. Does not feel like an album too me

If Zach Braff were an album, he’d look at this one and think “holy shit at least I’m not that boring”. Snooze fest

Meh, not really sure I liked it or not.

Verkar som om de hittat alla låtar Big Star slängt.

Genreharjoituksia - harmittomia mutta pohjimmiltaan tarpeettomia. Lisäpiste oikeanlaisen musiikin fanituksesta.

I know i should like it but man it was boring

What on earth is this doing on the list?!?!?

Rien de vraiment mauvais, mais tellement oubliable à la fois. J'ai de la difficulté à comprendre son inclusion sur un tel palmarès, j'oubliais que ça jouait. Tellement de pièces qui sonnent comme quelque chose que je connais mais rien d'épatant.

Not my bag.

I remember Wilco…sweet sweet Wilco. I always HATED IT

I like some later Wilco albums but this is very basic and uninspired. Some really bad country tinged stuff towards the end that is bar band quality. No need for a double album at all

Alternative country rock by the numbers. The album is much too long, especially considering it having not a single interesting song whatsoever. 2/5

What is this? Alt-Rock? Country Rock? Mundane Rock?

OK.

Wilco is so dull. 4/10

I actually liked this a lot more than I thought I would, but it was really dragging it's feet towards the end

2/5 This ones ok, didn't hit the mark for me tho sadly, was missing something.

I’m so bored. Why do people like this stuff? How is this exciting?

I just don't like wilco

They sound like a mediocre garage band down the street; I don't see the appeal.

I don't get the hype around Wilco (wait, *is* there any hype around Wilco?) This all just seems so... ordinary.

Eh, definitely not as good as Wilco's later work. Much more country influences on this one and less put together.

It was OK. Never a big Wilco fan.

A vast collection of songs that manage the impressive feat of leaving me utterly indifferent throughout.

didnt really enjoy this. i think wilco just isnt for me

country. instruments ok, voice annoying

Super long surprise country album. Not ideal.

honestly, not impressed, was expecting more from a wilco album.

2/5

Who'd've thought an early version of the Spotify playlist disguised as album would be from 96 and from an alt-country act. Yet here it is. Three formulas. Three times too long. And they're still at it in 2022.

It was okay

Not interesting at all

Alternativ indierock, country-vibes, lidt op og ned

For me the frustrating thing about Wilco, is despite their huge talent they produce albums with maybe one or two absolutely monster songs, but the rest of the album is essentially mediocre filler. Case in point - A Ghost is Born has At least that's what you said; Yankee Hotel Foxtrot has Jesus etc/Kamera; Summerteeth has How to fight loneliness; Wilco (the album) has I'll fight, and Sky Blue Sky has Impossible Germany/Either way, I could go on but you get the idea. If they put out a Greatest Hits album it would be absolutely essential listening as it would weed out all the dreck. Since Being There is only their second album, they still haven't fleshed out their sound despite this being 19 songs long. This album promises a bright future but it doesn't quite excite me.

Alright, quite easy listening but Disc 2 was a bit much.

Het zeurde en schuurde een beetje. Na een tijdje was ik er wel aan gewend, maar echt boeiend vind ik het niet.

Wilco is weer zo'n band die ik van naam ken, maar nooit aan toe ben gekomen of zin in had. Blijkt maar weer dat je gewoon op je muzikale intuïtie af kunt gaan, want het was echt niet heel bijzonder.

Is een beetje aan me voorbij gegaan, dus kan er niet echt een goed oordeel over geven

Wellicht moet ik dit nog eens echt een keer goed luisteren maar zo op de achtergrond tijdens het werk kwam het vooral over als veel van hetzelfde, en nogal traag.

Ik kan hier kort over zijn: ik vind hier niet veel aan.

A bit samey

wilco sind auch echt so sau langweilig

A bit too long to appreciate in a day - to be fair to other albums I guess I’ll give it a an average score - but it sounds very much like a grower

Minimal entertainment value here. D

Good, but too long. 2/5

ehhh i’m just not their biggest fan. their music isn’t my style and i just don’t really have anything good to say about them

Rather dull

Bit to tragic for me

I don’t get it. I feel that is my shortcoming, not the band’s. But just not for me.

Meh

L'ho trovato abbastanza ininfluente, almeno sulla mia attenzione.

Mainlining and mainstreaming are two different things. I prefer the musicians that do more mainlining than mainstreaming.

Boring. Sounds like the guy from Neutral Milk Hotel. 4/10.

I'm just not a huge Wilco fan.

I have heard of the band before but not familiar with their music. It is indie rock with hints of country. I did not need to hear this album.

I've had enough of Wilco

Miksi tuplalevy kun materiaali riitti yhteen? Hyvät biisit varsin toimivia, mutta levynä pitkäveteinen ja epätasainen.

Kyllä tätä kuunteli, mut ei koko levyä. En jaksanu loppuun asti. Varmaan elämäntilanteeseen nähden täysin vääränlaista.

First Listen. Really like some of the songs. I'm excited to hear this one again. It is listed as Alternative Country / Alternative Rock. I feel more alternative rock than country on many songs, others the country comes through. Very nice. 2/5 Standouts: Misunderstood.

I used quite like Wilco, but I'm not keen on this album. I don't find it very easy listening and in places quite jarring. The best album I own of theirs is 'Kicking Television, Live in Chicago', which is a sort of best of.

New to me, interesting but after a few tracks, it all sounds the same to me.

Meh.

Je moja šalica čaja, al nije mi dan za to, možd da je vjv veća ocjena, ovak tak je kak je. KAD NEMA NIŠTA NA POLA.

Not bad, just all a bit much of a muchness with few real stand out tracks.

This largely bored the nips off of my tits. 'I got you' was ok.

Psé. Bastante insípido, la verdad.

I'm not sure why I don't like this, because it's got bits of things I tend to really dig. Maybe it's that? That I tend to like my country and garage rock undiluted, but this feels like it's borrowing elements of those forms but denuding them of context. I liked a few songs, especially 'Monday' and 'Red-Eyed and Blue'. Fuck double albums.

At almost an hour and twenty, there are some duds on this album but having never listened to (insert band name) before, I'm glad I did because there are some ones I pulled out as well like Outtasite and I Got You. I put the parentheses because I feel like a lot of these albums are blending together in their rock/folk/guitar work. I understand and appreciate that there are so many artists out there with gifts to share but as I say on almost every review, I'm not trying to listen to 1001 Mediocre Albums before I die.

I don’t get it.

More than once now I have put this record on and thought, “Oh wait, is this better than I remember??” But then the first song ends and the rest of it happens and I remember that nah, there’s not another tune on either of these two discs that sounds at all like “Misunderstood.” And then I go another few years without ever thinking about it again. I do like a few other tunes, but for every one of those there are four bland pseudo-country or Stones/Replacements jaunts that bring absolutely nothing new to the table. Makes me wonder if I could cull this down into an EP sized collection that I mostly enjoy? Get out the scissors.

bland 90s radio music

A slow, drawn out listen. I don't mind the music but to finish the entire thing you need to be in a certain headspace. Not my favorite, not my least favorite.

Just not for me at all.

shmilco

It was okay. It was a good blend of alt and country (imo) I listened to the first half of the cd, but didn’t finish.

eh it's not bad but it's background music to a country pub or something. it's kinda country, kinda rock, kinda soul-ish at times, a bit bluesy, just a whole heap of stuff but none of it grabbed my attention. 2/5.

Wilco struggles to find a sound that is worth listening to, which is surprising given how much energy generally comes from country rock. Far to much of this album is boring/uninteresting and almost sleepy - this did not need to be a 2 CD album. There are moments where the fun energy comes through, but it's too fleeting to hold onto, especially when those moments are surrounded by a lot of wholly skippable material

Meh

Feels like a demo that never got any much needed production love. Didn't like it when it came out, but was hoping time and distance would change my mind. Fairly non-descript songs. Lyrics are a bit too Moon, June, Spoon (and not in a charming way) for my tastes. Song arrangements seem a bit too vanilla (even for 1996). Songs often overstay their welcome. And, I cannot stand his voice. So, of course the British critic loves this album. I hear songs with more personality and love from local bands at open mic night.

Meh

It's just so boring. So so boring.

Not my cup of tea

This shit was ass

I listened to the first track, saw the timeline of the full album track on YouTube, and thought: "Oh crap. Still more than an hour to finish this." The recording quality and use of instruments change so much throughout the album, and I really don't understand this lack of consistency... The style of the songs changes a lot, too. Sometimes it sounds like a boy singing to a Lou Reed song, sometimes like a boy singing to a Rolling Stones song...

la verdad al principio me aburrió, sinceramente no la escuche entera

I just found this so boring

Not for me. 1/5

I have always found Wilco to be utterly and hopelessly boring. This album to me is no different. And it’s a friggin double record. Jesus Christ. I know they are popular, but I just cannot ever figure out why. Most of the songs are musically boring from everything I’ve heard by them, I’m not really a fan of Jeff Tweedy’s voice. They are just a really, really generic sounding band. All are completely competent musicians, but they don’t ever seem to do anything interesting with their talent. I get some of the heartfelt, bygone era, missing home type lyrics. That’s all well and good, it’s just not for me in this moment. Maybe one day they will resonate with me, but it is not this day.

Indie country rock? Not for me thanks.

I was bored. V bored

Got dumped by someone who was a Wilco fan and can't listen to Wilco for a bit, sorry

I really don't know how this made it on this list

There were moments in here that conjured up The Killers/Brandon Flowers - which should have been an easy win. However, nothing ever felt all that well put together, and I was left feeling largely bored, annoyed, or both. Perhaps I'd have a better appreciation for this with more playthroughs, but its length seems too high a price to pay for entertaining that notion. Had it been halved, I'd have given it a 2 (or possibly higher with attainable replays), but at 75-minutes, it's a flushable fail that I'd rather just forget.

Someday Soon I won't have to listen to any more Wilco. Can't wait.

Didn't do anything for me tbh. Some echoes to the Byrds, Burrito Bros, etc (which Uncle Tupelo did better anyway), mixed with more contemporary sounds as if trying to be determinedly "different", it just comes across as a bit schizotic to me. Not one I'd return to.

Not too shabby! Didn’t rise to the one of the greatest albums of all time standard for me. Won’t rush to listen again.

Not a fan.

Yee-haw. Folk country music is annoying, even if they have a cool band name.

Duller than dishwater. Even the cover art is garbage.

Two whole discs of these dweebs. Ugh.

Groupe inconnu. Ah non en fait, le générateur m'a proposé 'Yankee Hotel Foxtrot' il y a 5 jours, que je n'avais pas apprécié (noté 2/5) mais ... je l'avais déjà oublié ! Heureusement qu'on peut consulter son historique. Ce second album est un concentré d'ennui profond, il ne présente absolument rien d'original. Le tout sur plus d'1 heure 15 ! Je n'ai pas pu aller au bout. J'ai compris assez vite pourquoi la maison de disque l'a proposé à moitié prix : c'était le seul moyen de le vendre ! Jamais plus. =>1/5

So apparently indie country is a thing - wish it wasn't...

Maybe it’s genius and I’m just too lowbrow to get it, but I found these songs incredibly boring. Getting through this album felt like a chore. Not for me.

Bisschen lash nicht mein ding

I wish I had more thumbs so I could give this album 4 thumbs down

This wasnt great. We stopped at about 3 songs in, too whiney and we werent in the mood for it.

Lazy album and dire lyrics.

I decided to listen to this in my morning run. It outlasted the run. Then I kept listening to it during my drive to work. It outlasted that as well. Then I had to drive product to a client. I put on random shuffle instead of this because anything is better than continuing through the 57 flavors of beige.

Please shut up and leave me alone. No, seriously, SHUT UP. I don't know what you think went wrong in your life but it's just not all that interesting. And yes, every song sounds exactly like something I've heard before a long time a go. Now please shut up.

This was just terrible.

pmo so bad sorry

157/1089 - It's almost listenable but his voice sucks too much. Flat and monotonous. The instrumentals also aren't nearly as interesting as on the Yankee Hotel Foxtrot album. Very forgettable. Thankfully there's only one more album with them and it's with that country guy with the strong accent so it might sound a bit different. Non-list recommendation: Jamiroquai - Traveling Without Moving (1996) The last of the initial acid jazz/nu-disco sound of Jamiroquai (Toby Smith and Stuart Zender are largely integral to this) with great hits like "Virtual Insanity" and "Cosmic Girl."

Gear: Focalman Cleardara Artwork: 🎸🖐️❄️ Production: 🙄🤔🤷 Music: 🎧⏳😖⌛🚫 Rating: 💤(💤)/5

Boring and over long. Par for the course for Wilco.

Good god I cannot stand country and their bullshit baby whiny fucking voices.

Huoh 1h 17 min chilling wibing sääntöä…

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long

Wilco's "Being There" cover art is a visual disappointment that fails to capture the album's musical complexity. The design feels uninspired and forgettable, lacking the creative energy that defines the record's sonic landscape. The cover seems like an afterthought - bland, generic, and completely disconnected from the album's intricate musical themes. It misses an opportunity to visually represent the album's rich, experimental nature and the band's innovative spirit. The artwork appears flat, unimaginative, and does little to entice potential listeners or reflect the nuanced musical journey within. For an album that represents such a significant artistic leap forward, the cover is frustratingly pedestrian and utterly unremarkable. Album artworks rated: 25/1001 Music's fine tho

Yikes... did not like this one, made it through the whole thing though

Musics worst crime on itself - the 80 minute CD. These guys need an editor / producer who can say NO. Actually, 80 mins had nothing to do with it. I was well bored before then. Which is weird, because I have heard Wilco before an enjoyed them.

I’ve never really listened to Wilco before, but thanks to 1001 Albums generator I now know they are completely shit.

Of all the boring bands Wilco is one of the boringest

Dullsville.

Boring whiny shite.

Hardly anything special or noteworthy about this album.

Wow, this was a slog! Its not that is was an awful album or a genre that I don’t like, it was just such a vanilla, boring album! This should be right in my wheelhouse, guitar based rock, but it was such a boring album. Sorry, it might be amazing, but it was lost on me. Vanilla shite

Seichter alternative Country.

I can see why people would like this, it’s just not for me

Boiler plate indie folk and alt rock, there's literally nothing special or interesting about Wilco, and I'm already dreading the time I'll have to listen to Yankee Hotel Foxtrot again because of this god forsaken list.

wish you were here instead of me

Oof. I guess it’s for someone. Songs sound really low effort to me. They’ve mastered the country/honky-tonk meander and songs take an eternity to get going. No hooks. Had to speed run this one bc it’s over an hour. Kinda liked what the opener was setting-up but I won’t be taking any of these tracks with me.

Too mellow for me

After what seems like weeks of listening to the same album every day, this list really does show it's bias towards "classic/alt/psychedelic rock with a touch of country" albums. And here's another one to throw on the pile.

I sleep

1. Not into the country vibes

Пиздец скукотища... я не понимаю... Окей, чуваки намешали в кантри (фолк) всякий разных глючных эффектов местами, перегрузы, педальки, какофонию, но всё равно: звучит ну прям очень по-старинному. Такой альбом надо было выпускать вот примерно в одно время с Битлами и Роллингами. Там он мог бы составить хоть какую-то конкуренцию. Здесь же... блин, мне настолько давно не было настолько противно от музыки. Просто пиздец. Я почитал, чел сначала 30 песен записал и хотел все выпустить. 30 блять песен!

по ходу альбома думал, какие треки я бы убрал, чтобы было не затянуто. остался ер

This is what Satan would play for me in hell

No good

I can not get on board with this. Lazy vocals, drab music. Just not good.

When I got the album Fuzzy by Grant Lee Buffalo, I thought it would sound like how this Wilco album does. Man, is this slow, boring, obnoxiously twangy, and way too long. After a while, I started to become numb. Glad they moved away from the alternative country stuff as they went on, as this certainly didn't do any favors for what I thought of Wilco.

Meh

Tröttsamt gubbträsk…

I don’t care for it. Nothing special, nothing caught my attention.

Was not the vibe for me

Täytyy myöntää, etten jaksanut juuri kuunnella. Oli juu kitaraa ja vähän folkia ja indietä ja ihan kivaa mutta yhdentekevää, ainakin ekalla kuuntelulla. Tokalla vois olla mahdollinen kakkonen?

These guys have to learn that singing about greedy goblins stealing your gold stash is way more interesting than whining about leaving your girlfriend back in Tennessee or some shit. What I'm trying to say is, that this is boring and goes on for an insanely long time. Almost 80 minutes with next to no diversity. Pain.

Alternative music flirting with country makes me uncomfortable

This is one of those albums to judge your friends by. I for one, don't get it, and don't get those who do.

Die 2. Platte von Wilco, die ich durchskippen muss, ganz durchhören (77 Minuten, was für eine Frechheit bei dieser banalen Grütze!) kann und will ich das nicht. Anzahl von Wilco-Alben, die in dieser Liste sein sollten: 0.

Soooooo boring

Not a fan at all. This is the first album that I almost stopped listening to.

Countryish meh, nothing about this album stands out or excites me, nor do I find it pleasant to just have in the background, I would prefer silence to this mediocrity

blechj

Reminds of randy Newman’s retarded son…music was super boring. How do these guys have fans!???

Meh.

Besides one or two good songs, a long boring album with no personality. I know that Wilco influenced some new bands that I like, but I didn't see anything here.

Didn't like. Everything sounded the same and it was too slow paced for me.

One of my all-time favorites.
