£23.99 – Black LP
Produced by Cate Le Bon
Wilco’s most pointed and evocative album, one related but not tied to our present moment; truly new ground for a band that has tested musical boundaries throughout its lengthy career.
After a short detour back into their country influenced roots via 2022’s ‘cruel country’ double album, ‘cousin’ sees wilco back in their more familiar progressive and experimental rock territory tweedy’s singular songwriting voice is in full evidence, with lyrics weaving across a variety of topics from the iconoclastic to the introspective.
Produced by Welsh artist Cate Le Bon, ‘Cousin’ marks the first time wilco have worked with an outside producer since jim o’rourke’s involvement with yankee hotel foxtrot and sky blue sky. le bon’s influences — among them the inclusion of saxophone, cheap japanese guitars, and a cinematic, new wave-style drum machine — drive the album into the future.
