From Amazon.com

After their wild experimental streak of the past decade, Wilco's sixth studio album might feel like a bit of a comedown. Sky Blue Sky is mellow, moody, and uncharacteristically monotone, opening with a pleasant jangle and Jeff Tweedy singing a simple song: "Maybe the sun will shine today, the clouds will blow away." He doesn't even follow it up with a barbed punchline. Could it be that the restless Chicago band has settled back into its gentle Americana roots--or does this sudden mid-career reappraisal represent Wilco's gutsiest move yet? Mostly written in the studio by the full band, it's certainly the group's most cohesive album in ages, presenting a dense song cycle padded with intricate guitar work, brushed rhythms, and '70s soft-rock accents. In places it sounds like Wings ("Hate It Here"), in others Harry Nilsson ("Walken"), and in the middle it goes a bit Grateful Dead ("Shake It Off"). At the same time, there's a distinct sense of hearing a band finally at ease in its own skin. Sky Blue Sky represents the sound of Wilco finally pulling through its petulant adolescence. --Aidin Vaziri


Album Description

2007 European tour edition includes a bonus disc with five non-album tracks, 'The Thanks I Get', 'Let's Not Get Carried Away', 'One True Vine', 'Impossible Germany' [Live] and 'Hate It Here' [Live]. Simple and soothing, yet rich and rewarding, this is an album you unknowingly yearn for, like a cool hand on a hot forehead. A great album from a band in their prime Sky Blue Sky is as eloquently straightforward as Wilco’s last studio recording, the Grammy-winning A Ghost Is Born, was daringly experimental. Tweedy’s lyrics deal forthrightly with romantic separation and reconciliation, their bittersweet quality giving way, as the album progresses, to a more uplifting, redemptive mood. Warner.

2.0étoiles sur 5 ..., Aoû 16 2007
I'd love to love this album, but I can't. This review is after four listens, and I'll still give it another few as I really like Wilco. I really love the unique blend of songs and sounds in albums like "Yankee Foxtrot Hotel" and, my personal favourite, "A Ghost is Born". But that is all but a memory in "Sky Blue Sky".

The album opens on a very high note with 'Either Way'. You experience Jeff Tweedy's great voice and wonderful guitar accompaniment. The backing guitar is great in this song and even better in songs like 'Unlikely Germany'. I'd go so far as to say it's the most impressive playing display in Wilco's songs so far. Maybe 'At least that what you said' comes close (on "A ghost is born")

The problem comes at around track 6 when you realize you've been hearing the same song for the last 3 tracks. The variance in style and sound on past Wilco records is gone and in its place is the same guitar you've been hearing the entire time and continue to hear for the rest of the record. Where is the change from 'Company at my back' to 'I'm a wheel'(on "AGIB"), 'I am trying to break your Heart' to 'Kamera' (on YFH) or 'How to fight loneliness' to 'via Chicago' (on "Summerteeth").

Using the same instruments is expected in rock groups. No one complains because Pearl jam doesn't use enough Blue's guitar or saxophone in their songs. But Wilco isn't the traditional rock group. And in this album they've really relying on one instrument to push through track. Sorry if I'm hammering this point so much, but the monotony is really the downfall of this album. Nothing happens to spice up and add interest to the songs.

At the end of the day, I feel like I'm listening to dad rock that could be on my local "easy listening" station. I hope we haven't lost Wilco forever and that Jeff Tweedy will come out more groundbreaking music we've seen him release in the past. I can't see a fan of Wilco liking this record, especially of a fan of the last two Wilco albums. I also don't think this is where you should start if your new to Wilco.

That said you should get some select songs from Itunes including the two I've previously mentioned.

Much has been made of Wilco's so called return to Americana or roots. What this record has going for it is the instrumental might of one Nels Cline, the 51 year old guitarist extraordinaire. The tunes are memorable, the licks sublime. What more could you ask for in overly processed times like these.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Everything has its plan, either way..., Jui 1 2007
A very strong and concise effort which flows beautifully from start to finish. Excellent songwriting and execution. Please don't be influenced by some of the nit-picky comments that several critics are putting out there about Sky Blue Sky. Artists evolve, bands evolve. Jeff Tweedy and company know what they're doing, so just sit back and enjoy the ride. This recording is somewhat understated relative to Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and A Ghost is Born. That's not good or bad, just different. Less is more with Sky Blue Sky, and every note counts on this recording. If you can appreciate anything about Wilco, you will not be disappointed with this CD. Like most art, it takes a little time to fully appreciate. Spend the time, you won't be disappointed.
