fluxblog on sky blue sky

SkyblueskyFluxblog, my favorite music blog of the year, on Wilco’s Sky Blue Sky, which has been in heavy rotation in our house since release: “Most of the worst reviews for the record glibly dismissed the music as ‘dad rock,’ which is sort of aggravating because I think that the epithet accidentally touches on the stoicism and maturity that is key to the record’s appeal, but favors a kneejerk appreciation of less emotionally (or musically) complicated music.”
