I’m actually not a Wilco diehard, and I’m not really that excited by the new Tweedy album, but I like it and when I remember Wilco exists, I enjoy their music.
Maybe people who like adventurous music like the fact that Wilco can be adventurous but can also be comfy and cozy and sweatpany. So could REM. So could Sonic Youth, actually.
So... weird thing to trigger your rage at mundane/basic music, since it’s really not that.
Don’t you enjoy well-done folk music? Mermaid Avenue is simple as can be, but very good.
Not all music needs to warp your mindhlole. Some of it can just be fun.
