I Am Trying To Break Your Heart is their staggering career pinnacle. The rest s just nice, occasionally really, really wel put together. Best thing about YHF is Jim O'Rourke.

who thinks mayne will dig 'poor places', I do

actually I think he will like 'pot kettle black' too

i gave up with two to go and listened to that 'black characters in friends' thing again

moholy-nagl (history mayne), Sunday, 19 December 2010 22:05 (thirteen years ago) link

PP and PKB are the 2nd and 3rd best songs on it, aye. There are no "bad" songs on YHF, though; just nothing else, anywhere in their canon, like IATTBYH.

THIS IS AWESOME. and from a guy who likes slayer too.

(IATTBYH)

it's not bad i suppose

No Wicked Heart Shall Prosper.rar (nakhchivan), Sunday, 19 December 2010 22:08 (thirteen years ago) link

although califone are horribly overlooked and that is not their best song - 'black metal valentine' is heaps better than both of the songs mentioned there

Tweedy's son is awesome. There is a part with the two of them hanging out in the movie IATTBYH that's adorable.

obv i dunnno who i wd be responding to itt

No Wicked Heart Shall Prosper.rar (nakhchivan), Sunday, 19 December 2010 22:34 (thirteen years ago) link

hence lack of attribution

No Wicked Heart Shall Prosper.rar (nakhchivan), Sunday, 19 December 2010 22:35 (thirteen years ago) link

you might as well just admit to having a sock because your other explanation doesn't really fly and this revive makes you look cray cray otherwise

ENBB, Sunday, 19 December 2010 22:36 (thirteen years ago) link

it's sposed to look crazy

Wilco is a rip-off of Blango

Well obviously they're irrelevant and rockist....but I quite like Summerteeth: they're not crap ;)

They just kind of...exist. From what I've heard of theirs, I have no desire to search out their music any more. They just kind of bored me.

The whole point about Wilco (as Summerteeth proves beyond all doubt) is that they're not rockist, as opposed to Son Volt. Being There is not rockist, but rather operates to question the foundations of rock myth.

YHF is the only not-horrible album they've made, and that only rises to pleasant and dull.

I think my first ILM post was in 2003 and I still don't understand what the fuck 'rockist' is supposed to mean.

idk markers

not saying yr img spamming of near-consecutive stills from a video alongside contextual ilx archive posts is totally devoid of experimentalism

but it's a 'yankee hotel foxtrot' sort of experimentalism, where the left-field aspects are kinda glued on to something that is actually fairly conventional

doesn't it look better without the captions? truly unencumbered from the need to supply banal 'context', tweedy's affective dynamics are rendered in all their glory

one of the first things that struck me as kinda singular abt ilx was a certain use of image posts. one of the second things was how bad ilxor and markers are at image posts.
