Wilco has always been a consistently great band. However, critics have continually struggled in trying to define what genre
of music they can be classified as. The most common (however innacurate) genre labeling has been Alt-Country. However, when
Wilco released Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, this confused critics even more. Wilco hit their peak of musicianship with this journey
into more experimental ground. Singer/songwriter Jeff Tweedy reached unexpected heights with a thoroughly satisfying album.
Yankee Hotel Foxtrot served in throwing Wilco into the mix of the most bold and daring bands of the 21st century. In many
ways, this album is Wilco's OK Computer. Experimental, groundbreaking, and brilliant.
Key Tracks:
Radio Cure
War on War
Jesus Etc.
Final Verdict: 9.8
