Sep 9, 2016Schmilco is Wilco’s most musically simple and emotionally resonant record in a decade, gorgeously naked and efficient.
-
Sep 7, 2016It’s simply, as mentioned, unpretentious, unassuming, and crucially, good music.
-
MojoSep 2, 2016Schmilco in particular is best consumed as a contemplative whole. [Oct 2016, p.94]
-
Sep 13, 2016Wilco could have settled into being a comfortable, unchallenging arena-filling rock band, instead they’re knocking out marvels like this every year, constantly defying expectations and embracing change.
-
Sep 2, 2016Wilco has made a weird little folk record. It not only sounds different than the band's previous album, but slightly out of step with the rest of its discography.
-
Sep 12, 2016The songs, for the most part, possess more straightforward sonic architecture, and it’s also a much more restrained record.
-
Sep 12, 2016Schmilco is missing the same spark that drove Schmilsson. Where Nilsson was relentless in pursuit of something other than settling down, Tweedy has gone the other way.
