Wilco – Cruel Country

Perhaps Wilco's best album since The Whole Love, Cruel Country is full of post-Trump post-pandemic observations on living in a cruel yet beautiful country. This dichotomy has long been on bandleader Jeff Tweedy’s mind, yet has never been so directly confronted. Instant classics, Bird Without a Tail..., The Universe, and Many Worlds are some of Wilco’s most beautiful work.
