I have to say, YHF was a great album, but like...not best album of the last fifteen years by any means. I've listened to it over and over and I still can't see why it's getting such massive applause, critical and otherwise...

Like I said, great album, but...I dunno...There are at least 3 Built to Spill albums that trounce YHF, although I'm somewhat biased since I have a man-crush on Doug Martsch.

#1: Yankee Hotel Foxtrot by Wilco



[/ QUOTE ]

I went to UW. I love UW. I used to blast UT at parties in our house on Randall Ct. I hate that YHFT record. I really hate that record. That is all.

[/ QUOTE ]

If it makes you feel any better, you're wrong about YHF. I don't mean that in a "in my opinion" kind of way. I mean that anyone who HATES YHF is objectively wrong and thus should recieve the board title of sub-human retard, ala CMI.


[/ QUOTE ]

I tried to like it. I really did. Wilco was one of my favorite bands up to that point (and Uncle Tupelo is in the top 3 for me). A.M. was awesome, as were Being There and Summerteeth, but YHFT just is way too cute. Tweedy has lost touch, IMHO.

YHFT is the most over-rated record of the last 10 years. I hate it. I don't get the obsession with it at all. Summerteeth is infinitely better. [end rant]

Here are some gems, in no particular order:

Uncle Tupelo-No Depression (and it's not close)
Marah-Let's Cut the Crap and Hook Up Later on Tonight
U2-Achtung Baby
BashNPop-Friday Night is Killing Me
BuffaloTom-Let Me Come Over
Radiohead-The Bends
The Weakerthans-Left and Leaving
16 Horsepower-Low Estate
Sebadoh-Bakesale

[/ QUOTE ]

Afew others:

Whiskeytown-Stranger's Almanac
Superchunk-Foolish
Archers of Loaf-Icky Metal (I can't believe I forgot that one)
The Bottle Rockets-The Brooklyn Side
Elliott Smith-Either/Or
The Spinanes-Strand
Dinsoaur Jr. - Bug
The Smashing Pumpkins-Siamese Dream
The Replacements-All Shook Down
The Lemonheads-It's a Shame About Ray
Ben Lee-Breathing Tornadoes
Yo La Tengo-Painful
