Wilco Sucks - Your Favorite Band Sucks Podcast

[@danieljliverslxxxix1164]

I'm impatiently awaiting the Foo Fighters episode.

[@GodbreadGilfredBiago]

The most bland band ever.

[@setharmstrong3502]

The favorite band of every urban lumberjack-looking, craft brewery hipster. You know the ones...

[@aeneas237]

If craft beer was a band.

Been a long time since you guys have done a band I actually like. This will be fun!

i’d love an episode on Ghost

Open up two windows on your computer, play the kiss episode and the queen episode at the same time

[@AnnoyingOrange420]

I bought Yankee Hotel Foxtrot for 2$ at a used CD shop and still regret it

[@docdeens4030]

Wilco: the band that single handedly raised the price of PBR from 75 cents at my local bar to five bucks. Thanks dicks.

[@DazeyChaineMusic]

they don’t even drink

[@DazeyChaineMusic]

Also wtf drinks PBR

[@DazeyChaineMusic]

Hipsters have been drinking Coors for like the last10-15 years anyways , old man

I dare you to do an episode on The Dead Kennedys.

[@wolfstar675]

Please do an Aaron Lewis/Staind sucks episode!

[@maryannappiagyei4277]

Agree

[@JimBobMcGillicuddy]

But Staind is good

[@pricila6511]

​​@@JimBobMcGillicuddy Hahaha 😂😂😂... Staind.. As in shit "staind" music

[@n.w.2579]

I like "Summerteeth" and think it is easily their best. But I still think it is generic background music. It doesn't sound like Spoon.

[@wildmercuryfilms]

Jay Bennett is what made Wilco great. When they fired him, they became a Generic Band. Listen to “Can’t Stand It,” “California Stars,” “War On War,” “Jesus Etc,” “Remember The Mountain Bed,” “Secret of the Sea.”

[@guyincognito320]

Was he on those tracks or nah

[@michaeldonovan7522]

Wilco sucks after Jay Bennet

[@bobertrobertson130]

can you do a Frank Ocean sucks, feel like he's due rn

[@CarlyonProduction]

YES. My god his fucking dans. I like the guys music but holy shit he and his music sucks!!

[@jdwilliams202000]

He actually sucks lol

[@malai-kwainewschannel3302]

This channel is awesome. Helps to differentiate between ones affinity vs ones value judgment.

[@Genny-Zee]

Wilcos drummer worked on T-Shift’s latest album. So that tells me all I need to know.

[@StalinBballin]

Shoutout to 16 Horsepower. David Eugene Edwards rules. Wovenhand is another one of the great bands he’s involved in.

[@johnnycatsup]

Big fan of everything up through The Whole Love (after which the songwriting fell off a cliff), but it’s always good spiritual discipline to listen to YFBS eps about bands I like

[@darealberrygarcia]

Nobody even questions if Wilco sucks 😅

[@Erniewatchesyourubepvt]

The hat wasn’t floppy enough guys

[@riffgodinc7993]

In the UK, Wilco is the name of a home store, so now I'm confused. I've never heard of this band before

[@bottlemanic]

Snap. Never heard of the band either so I just picture the store

[@faaaduma6876]

No one knows them either. No worries.

[@puffitale]

I started listening to this episode as a podcast on a train home. I thought you meant floppy hat as in a bucket hat or something. I am happy I was wrong.

[@michaelwills1926]

You’re right, they’re wrong, for better or worse

[@jammyjams8522]

Excited for this year of YFBS (But you guys will never do a Zappa episode)

[@thirdlegstalliano]

Zappa sucks

[@bobertrobertson130]

whats your opinion on Arctic Monkeys, seems like they've quietly been the most popular band of the last 10 years

[@thirdlegstalliano]

Arctic Monkeys suck

[@mattjohn4731]

ELT is still a banger. Thanks for mentioning Jim O'Rourke. That's an interesting tidbit. Which leads to are you covering Sonic Youth? Or Dinosaur Jr?

[@GeorgiaCav]

Back in 2003, I fell into the music media hype trap for this band and watched the documentary and bought Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and Summerteeth. When I realized I couldn’t bring myself to listen to either record all the way through, I made a mixtape of four or five of the songs from both albums (that’s two or three songs per album, not four or five each) that I found listenable, including ELT and Camera. Then I realized I couldn’t even listen to the mixtape all the way through and gave up, sadder but wiser.

[@DrinkerOfWindex]

These guys were on the bill for a ton of different festivals I went to back in the day, but I can honestly say I never saw them.

[@nashwhal]

I knew this was coming eventually

[@StalinBballin]

Oh shit, a Butch Walker reference! Dude took guitar lessons from my guitar teacher in high school, so you can thank Jerry King for Butch Walker.

[@ZeonNoOukoku]

Glad to hear you mention 16 Horsepower. Such a fantastic band. On the other side of "Alternative Country", what do you think of Mohave 3, especially their earlier work?

[@batboy9997]

I'm new here but love the show. Any Marilyn Manson plans??

[@jerrybergsteinbaum8008]

Wait....that's not Dave landau?

[@RedParker-ts]

YHF is excruciating to listen to. If I want to learn "How to Write One Song" the last person I'd buy a book from would be Jeff Wilco, as he hasn't done it yet. "Crawling is screw faster latch, I blow it with kisses" get fuckin real

[@gingerale3070]

im down with any fucking podcast that mentions 16 Horsepower. just the mere fact that a host even knows about their greatness lets me know that they are a trusted source of what is "good" and "bad" music.

[@BCThunderthud]

I think I might have fallen for this if it didn't happen at the same time that I was first getting into actual country music. I don't know about how I feel about this coming from a Gram Parsons apologist though.

[@misterknightowlandco]

Gram Parsons was kinda the Jeff tweedy of his day now that you mention it

[@tuckercherry8655]

They were playing a music festival I went to this past weekend. Didn’t stay for their set and now I feel vindicated.

[@Cars_and_Games]

Jay Bennet, Wilco guitarist, was my first guitar teacher in Champaign-Urbana, in 1994. R.I.P. Jay. That said, i never really liked Wilco. As a teenage beginner guitarist in the 90s I wanted to learn dumb shit like Metallica and Alice and Chains.

[@bystanderbehindamask7369]

who?

[@fanboy6405]

nirvana is more country than wilco. cant wait for the john mayer episode!

[@IolZ555]

Can’t wait for the Playboi Carti sucks episode, truly some of the worst music I’ve heard is by him

[@idolgray]

Die lit is great...because pierre bourne.. WLR is one of the most overrated "influential" albums recently...somehow the artist carti influenced makes music thats 10x worse.

[@whenfatkillsfat803]

Never had I agreed with you more on a shout out to a lesser known band. I fucking love Hey Album by Marvelous 3. Underrated power pop.

[@PopCounterCultureEd]

More like wontco

[@DutchChattahoochee]

i have never heard a single song from this band, but, after this i do not want to still. lol i do however want to listen to the other bands that you mentioned, you dudes have never let me down before.

[@tiffanyr9975]

I’m so happy i came to youtube to see what the “floppy hat” was that y’all were talkin about. I never would have guessed. I’ve always known it as the “rich mom on vacation” hat, most likely paired with giant designer sunglasses, so it’s hilarious to imagine hipsters wearing those

[@rodneyanonymous666]

Thank you

[@soapybeats4111]

the Heavy Metal Drummers song was kinda good tho ngl

[@johnakni]

Wilco is actually way worse than you describe. I remember hearing one album ( against my will) which sounded like they took The Band and crossed it with Little Feat, but removed all the interesting aspects of both bands but kept all the terrible aspects. Spiders is a rip off of the Peter Gabriel song On the Air, despite the band claiming its their token experimental krautrock song.

[@evanwright9016]

Jeff Tweedy's voice is if Wayne Coyne took a liking to nicotine instead of LSD, or even better, some drunk guy trying a John Prine impression. That's never a compliment.

[@charles616]

Now that Tyler coined the phrase, when are we getting an "Nonetry Music" shirt?

[@genderqueerlesbofluidiangodesz]

Reddit: the podcast

[@TheMisterthoms]

Dead the f*** on with Billy Bragg, and the Radiohead comparisons.

[@n.w.2579]

I am confused Wilco hasn't even resembled country since "Being There," their second album. Of course I agree they are a perfect band for a genericized adult contemporary indie generation. They made krautrock and experimental rock sound unassuming enough to be played in the Starbucks mix.

[@JohnSmithAprilMay]

I would love an episode on Faith No More. I'm pretty neutral on them, but I also don't get all the hype around Mike Patton's voice when he sounds like he a cartoon character with a broken nose more than half the time.

[@magicjackm]

tell us you've only heard The Real Thing without telling us you've only heard The Real Thing

[@WokeAssMessiah]

@@magicjackm just last week someone recommended that I listen to FNM’s live version of some song so I went to YT and holy shit did that song suuuuck, Patton couldn’t hit any of the notes, it was just embarrassing

[@JohnSmithAprilMay]

@@magicjackm I love the assumption die hard fans have of any band. "You just haven't heard the RIGHT album, man." Nah, dude, I had a phase. I heard them all.

[@WhateverFarley]

When are you two going to do no/fx, bright eyes, Dinosaur Jr., sonic youth, velvet underground.

[@tripperdelaluna1]

ELO's "Out of the blue" is a double album.

[@tripperdelaluna1]

also 13:34 Son Volts "trace" is a great album - way better than "AM" - but they should've stopped there.

[@LettersofVerax]

16 Horsepower reference!

[@JKAV_76]

Floppy hat = the hat Steven Tyler wears

[@faaaduma6876]

I was doubtful for some reason, that' you'll you ever come for N'SYNC. Dang!!!

[@bunny70]

I'm a big fan of Uncle Tupelo from when I saw them by chance in 91. Still Feel Gone is still one of my all-time favorite top 5 albums. never was a fan of Wilco. I feel like Jay and Jeff got into many heated arguments in the studio and because of that mostly the good stuff got released But my defense of Tupelo is that no one was really that sound back then and really didn't become that successful til the end

[@tbecker403]

Uncle Tupelo is one the best bands ever, and few people have heard them. Jeff has done some decent stuff with Wilco, but I’m more of Jay fan.

[@CoffinReaper666]

Gonna be a lot of angry dads

[@garysmith9823]

Spot on.

[@farmyardflavours]

i like your show. one of my favorite bands is Culture Club and would love to see you do an episode dedicated to them, lol

[@mattjohn4731]

Haha it was Jay Tupelo. Not Jeff Wilco😝 I sing and play 🎸. Really like singing Jay but not Jeff. Also I love Woody Guthrie and MDC and Minutemen

I don't know man, Wilco is pretty good.

Impossible Germany is a good song but the rest just makes me sleepy.

[@icantdecideanything1]

Jeff Wilco 😂

[@jjerkamillo]

This entire time I thought I was musically inept for not understanding this band's appeal. On the other hand, I'm literally listening to Pennywise right now, so what the fuck do I know?

[@TheHSIHP]

Wilco is a rock band. Critics called Wilco alt country, not the band.

[@WhateverFarley]

I got a Dr Pepper tattoo, #DoctorPepper

[@jejelad]

No mention of Loose Fur!

[@misterknightowlandco]

So you don’t like Americana music… ok… yeah a lot of it is Bob Seger mixed with alt. Rock and the occasional bluegrass instrument being thrown in 😂 it’s country music for those who grew up in the suburbs but only like 15 minutes away from the actual country

[@TroysSweetCornhole]

Why do i not take these guys seriously? Who are they?

[@beakyfree7023]

Wilco are like indie films for unseasoned potatoes. Needless to say, the intro music for the pod sucks.

[@CleanFamilyVideos]

Coke is objectively the best beverage on Earth.

[@atlasking6110]

Wilco does suck. I got suckered in to buying one of their CD's based on the critical raves and it SUCKED. Not one decent song on it. I used it for a beer coaster for a while to get some use out of it, then tossed it.

[@Steiney]

Thank you! I hate this band so much and our community radio station worship Jeff Tweedy. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@ericajohnson7535]

they're such an esoteric nu-listeneable band...

[@charlesb23]

This episode is lazy and phoned in. Leaving loose low hanging fruit. 🎉

[@mattjohn4731]

Slim Cessna's Auto Club, Munly and 16 Horsepower I really dig. Having lived in Denver from '01 to 2010. Wikipedia had a page for the Denver sound but I think it changed to Gothic Americana. I really like Giant Sand, Handsome Family, Marah but also Uncle Tupelo etc. Alejandro Escovedo 🏜️
