Overview
Regular visitors to New Zealand, Wilco return for another romp nearly eighteen years on from the release of their seminal, breakthrough album, Being There.
Wilco’s eighth studio album, The Whole Love, was released in September of 2011, and was rated by Rolling Stone as the “8th best album of 2011”. Mojo placed it at number 29 on its “top 50 albums of 2011” list, and it received a nomination at the 54th Grammy Awards.
The Whole Love can be seen as a unification of the “ear-drum pulverizing forays into the sonic unknown” of 2002’s Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and the “cinematic sounding country music” leanings of 2007’s Sky Blue Sky and 2009’s Wilco, that has seen it hailed as being “inventively avant-garde” with krautrock-style glitch and spiky new wave sounds.
