After seven studio albums, various collaborations and countless days on the road over the past 15 years, Wilco tried something new before starting work on its eighth record: The Chicago band took a vacation. Or, more specifically, they took time to put the old songs out of mind long enough to write some new ones.
The result is 12 stunning songs that showcase Wilco in a new light, on bold rockers, somber acoustic ballads and punchy pop songs, bookended by the propulsive 7-minute opener “Art of Almost,” and a meditative 12-minute closing track, “One Sunday Morning.” The Whole Love follows the band’s 2009 Grammy-nominated Wilco (The Album).
