Nice review SammyJay. I remember being obsessed with this album when it first came out. I think that the percussion on this particular album is quite unique especially on 'I am trying to break your heart'. I like the fact that they kept some of their pop sound for some of the songs. The mix of upbeat pop and dark lyrics is a feature of Wilco that I adore.
I would say that this is their 'masterpiece' but I really couldn't say which is my favourite album. I'm loving Sky Blue Sky at present.
