Hot Sun Cool Shroud

Wilco

A gritty, heat-warped collection of summer sketches. Wilco trades their recent polished country-folk for jagged guitars and restless, experimental energy.

Find on Amazon

It's Wilco's 'sweaty basement' record where the guitars actually bite back.

A restless, heat-stroked energy that balances jagged experimentalism with weary melodic tenderness.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden jagged guitar eruption on Livid that cuts through the calm in just over a minute
The way the percussion on Hot Sun feels like it is melting under the weight of the heat
The skeletal and haunting chime-like textures that open Inside the Bell Bones
