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.

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

Check out Mayo Thompson's "Corky's Debt to His Father" from '69. Do it now; you won't be sorry.

@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.

@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

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

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.

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.
