Lately, I've become hooked by the band Wilco. If you know anything about me, you understand this isn't remotely rare. First off, I've had an on and off love affair with the band dating about five years back. Second, when I'm exposed to a band's entire catalog over a short period of time, I tend to completely buy in to what they're selling. In this case, my buying represents my addiction in listening to nearly everything Wilco.
So, as of today, I must consider Wilco as one of my favorite bands. It's been a slow climb, but so many aspects push them over the top crust, and into the top 10. So, over the next 10 weeks (or possibly sooner, my planning is for shame on this project), I will release to you my ten favorite bands. It should be an interesting experiment in music.
There's clearly no question who the song of the day is coming from, and since I haven't picked a song all week, this is going to turn out to be the song of the week. It's Wilco with one of their most easily recognizable songs, "Heavy Metal Drummer." By the way, the music starts around the :35 clip, before that is part of their documentary, I Am Trying to Break Your Heart. It's one of my favorites. Enjoy it.
