Summerteeth

This is NOT Uncle Tupelo

Review Score: StarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStar (10/10)
I was always kind of pissed off at Tweedy for going away from his Uncle Tupelo/Alt. Country roots. Especially when I first heard this album. But for a year, I would put it in and listen to it one time, and eventually it grew on me as a great album. I like just about every song on here. The overall tone seems to be about a relationship breakup. Did Tweedy and his wife break up? I hope not. Lots of great lyrics, especially in "A Shot in the Arm" ("Fell in love in the key of C" and "Ashtray says you were up all night"). I like the desperation in "How to Fight Loneliness", the perkiness of "Summer Teeth" and the song "Via Chicago". "ELT" (which stands for Every Little Thing) is my choice for best song to start out a mix CD.

Overall, I think this is a great album, but I think you need to really be into all the influences from the Beach Boys, Beatles, and 60's and 70's radio rock to completely enjoy it.
