@sellout87 I was about 15 or so in the 10th grade, back in 2003.

This is one album that i used to love back then that still gets put on rotation 8 years later. Hard to believe it's been that long already.

I grew up with this band.My dad used to play it when I was in preschool.We still play it and we buy a cd whenever it comes out.

@mimipuppy123 that doesn't really challenge the "dad-rock" notion. haha, it's still pretty great.

[gregmax19]

@mimipuppy123 started when i was older but yeah its been a father son thing for me and my dad to

[KimCheongBRO]

I share much the same sentiment as a few of you here. I remember when this album was new back when i was in about 10th grade, and i used to just give it a casual listen now and then, basking in the meloncholy tones indulging in my adolescent angst. But it wasn't until the past year when a friend of mine pulled it off the shelf and put it on while we were drinking that i realized its true greatness. I hear it now with new ears, having experianced more, realizing its honesty and beauty.

@KimCheongBRO whats 10th grade or rather how old are you in it? the irish school system is a little bit different.either way, this is an amazing album. i got into wilco 2 or 3 years ago when my friend lent me sky blue sky. i always considered that my ultimate wilco album but this one definitely is a grower

[securedbymac]

Just getting into some Wilco...late bloomer. Great Stuff Here. Thanks for Posting it.

the transition from radio cures to war on war is so infectious...

these songs are forever ingrained in my brain like the grooves in a vinyl record...

it's hard to believe that this album didn't even register with me the first time I listened to it and I just put it up on the shelf for 6 years, until I just revisited this music recently...

[devonnigelreedtube]

I'm in the same boat. I was just casually having a conversation about Wilco the other day and played "Jesus, Etc." as a demonstration to friend who hadn't heard them. Ended up getting sucked into this album like I never had before...

[DoubleX19]

same, i had the album for a few weeks, thought it was okay, but a little dull. then i came back to it....and bam

[BloggerMusicMan]

Thank you very much for putting this up. Today I realized just how brilliant Wilco is.

hell yes hell yes hell yes hell yes

[lesscunning]

radio is a good song. yes...

[chuckle14]

I was listening to someone's shared library on itunes, doing some work, and they had this album. I decided to listen to it. I've never been able to stop listening to it since. It has the flow of a movie, and is probably one of my favorite albums of all time.

[T2DAFEE]

I definatly agree their isnt a single bad or boring song on this album. it's perfect.

[teganyavo]

when i was in 11th grade i used to wake up every morning 10 minutes early so I could start my day with Radio Cure. Best grades I ever made in my life, too.

[joe44850]

It took about 5 listens to Radio Cure before I realized it's brilliance. You need patience for this one, but as the track builds the ears are warmly rewarded

[someguyonthiswebsite]

Totally Agreed. Strangely on first listen I thought it was so boring, but then after repeated hearings I realized how catchy and amazing it really is.

[lemonade86]

awesome
