3rd Quarter: Shifting the Wilco Sound

In this episode of Shoving Wilco, host Todd Rossnagel is joined by Tim Arnold and they continue to traverse their way through the Wilco discography. In this episode, they discuss three of Wilco's most acclaimed albums: Wilco (The Album), The Whole Love, and Star Wars.

If you were to chunk out the Wilco discography, these three albums would be the 3rd quarter of the football game. (We know they produced other albums!) In this episode, Todd and Tim dissect their favorite cuts from each album, discuss where they were when they were released, and share their thoughts on Wilco's evolution as a band.

We discuss the origins of Wilco (The Album), and how it marked a departure from the band's previous sound and the unique songwriting of Jeff Tweedy, and how he's able to capture the complexities of the human experience in his lyrics.
