New Wilco - "Glad It's Over"

thumbnail icon: New Wilco - "Glad It's Over"

It's a tad strange listening to a Wilco song without a Volkswagen commercial attached to it, but we'll deal. The previously unreleased "Glad It's Over"'s a slippery toe-tapping Sky Blue Sky outtake that appears on the previously mentioned, Death Cab and My Morning Jacket-studded Heroes soundtrack, available only at Best Buy. Or, if you don't feel like leaving the couch, get acquainted with Wilco's two cents over at Hype. Kinda Spoon-y.

I'm all for calling blogs out on their shit, but that complaint is just stupid. Go away.

There's a good reason for outtakes. There's an even better reason to not let those songs see the light of day.

Song should've made the album along with "The Thanks I Get." Oh well.

Speaking of calling blogs on their shit, quit spamming the comments with links to your shitty blog, Yo Yo Yo Money.

This song is crucially un-Spoon like in its creamy 70s AM-liteness. If i had to break it down binary style, it's much closer to Billy Joel than it is to Spoon.

It saddens me that this great song had to be tainted by an ignorant discussion of post titles. Anyway, it's a great song, easily better than many on Sky Blue Sky.

Quit Your Day Job: Ungdomskulen

The Bergen trio Ungdomskulen play proggy post punk, mixing chops and hooks with a sense of humor. But they don't sound like Primus. When I was in Norway a couple years ago, "Ungdomskulen" seemed to be on everybody's lips (or...

Premature Evaluation: Beck - Modern Guilt

It's been some time since we learned Modern Guilt, Beck Hansen's eighth album, would be some sort of psych rock minimalist '60s trip with Danger Mouse. Since then, we've gotten a look at the old-school jazz/Blue Note-style cover art and...

Damien Jurado - "Murderer" (Low Cover)
