As a big Wilco fan, who prefers their alt.country stuff but grew to love YHF, I really think AGIB steps over the line into indulgence a few times.
If I wanted to listen to white noise for 10 minutes, I'd start a conversation with my wife.

oddly, i find the best tracks on the albums ones you haven't listed: muzzle of bees and humming bird. spiders is freakishly brilliant, especially when the guitar slams in. perhaps our different opinions can be put down to my superior taste, which is highlighted by my preference of ok computer. btw yes i'm just being annoying now
iggy plop said:I'm a massive fan of Jim O'Rourke's production and solo stuff and that's what drew me to this album in the first place. I'm a bit of a self-indulgent, feedback man myself so that stuff doesn't worry me although the I must agree the album could have done without that 15 minute track.
Muzzle of Bees and Wishful Thinking are beautiful songs, while handshake drugs and I'm a wheel are toe tappers at their best. And you can't go past Spiders for a repetitive, discordinant bliss! I love that song.
I am now in the process of seeing what the rest of Tweedy's work offers.
