The New Wilco album, "Sky Blue Sky" has leaked. It's a mellower disc, pure Wilco goodness, but you won't find any 9 minute guitar freakouts like Spiders (Kidsmoke) off "A Ghost Is Born" or any overt sonic manipulation that can be found on Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. This album is more akin to "Summerteeth" and "Being There".
Tweedy sounds almost content on this album, a wise sage letting the entire album unfold quietly.
Standout tracks include Either Way, Impossible Germany, Side With The Seeds and Walken.
Other albums currenlty digesting:
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club-Baby 81
Modest Mouse-We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank
Son Volt-The Search
The Black Lips-Los Valientes Del Mondo Nuevo
The Shins-Wincing The Night Away
Arcade Fire-Neon Bible
Police tickets go officially go on sale today for two shows in Wrigley Field. Since the Van Halen reunion imploded, This is probably going to be the only big ticket reunion show I attend this summer.

I hope this is not true, but if it is, It will be interesting to see the music made on both sides.

Cbro asked for the Eddie Vedder induction speech of R.E.M. from the other week, It's a long speech, but not as long as Eddie's induction of the Ramones a few years back. You can really tell the mutual respect between Ed & R.E.M..
