Wilco - Star Wars (Epitaph) 2015
9
Surprise records are always nice, like when we receive some present, gift or whatever that we’re not expecting, especially when in this case is a fucking new Wilco album… By the way, it’s a surprise and free on their website for a limited time, nevermind it’s free… It’s a fucking new Wilco album!!! Jeff Tweedy is one of the most prolific artists in the world, and is also an adventurous musician, with no fear of experimenting and this time we might dare to say that he and his comrades go timeless and classy, because Star Wars is a visionary trip into their own alternative-country-rock-meets-distortion-meets-groovy rock-fuzzy guitars-Beatles+Lennon/emotional-esque. It’s an unusual work and path, might say some fans, but it’s bold, sounds fresh and unique, we dare to say that’s a vintage tale of Wilco’s best shot in years, if not of this decade.
