Release Date: April 23rd, 2002
Yankee Hotel Foxtrot might be the most storied album of the decade. Initially dismissed for being too weird and then bought back by a subsidiary of the same conglomerate responsible for the dismissal, it quickly launched to the top of every hipster's name-dropping list. And with good reason, here Wilco conquered new frontiers for the alternative americana genre, using the kind of sonic architecture reserved for weirder, less accessible groups, or The Beatles during their LSD years. Jeff Tweedy is also at his most interesting and effective lyrically, tying a perfect bow on a truly great album.
Poor Blink 182...
