Entertainment Reviews:
Rolling Stone - 5/9/02, pp.71-72
4 out of 5 stars - "...An earthy, moving psychedelia, eleven iridescent-country songs about surviving a blown mind and a broken heart....the enchanting sound of things falling apart-and gingerly, doggedly coming together again..."Spin - 1/03, p.70
Ranked #2 on Spin's list of 2002's "Albums of the Year"Spin - 3/02, p.131
"...The record includes fragments of treated piano, static interference, [and] random noises....YANKEE isn't your typical Americana or alt-country record..."Entertainment Weekly
"The work of a band breaking free from gravity with the confidence that strains of roots, prog, pop, and noise can peacefully coexist."Q - May 2002, p.121
4 out of 5 stars - "...This elegant, world-weary...album ploughs enthusiastically into the leftfield..."Uncut - 1/03, p.94
Ranked #4 in Uncut's "100 Best Albums of the Year" - "...Wilco's finest, its pretty electronic textures and melodicism making a heartbreaking album..."CMJ - 12/30/02, p.10
Ranked #5 on CMJ's "Top 10 of 2002"CMJ - 4/22/02, p.4
"...[A] beautifully strange mix of organic textures and oblique poetics, all of it gently pulsating with a backwoodsy tech-head feel..."Mojo (Publisher) - p.26
Ranked #26 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "Jeff Tweedy suffers personal crisis and pines for innocence lost before eventually arriving at a redemption of sorts."Mojo (Publisher) - 1/03, p.73
Ranked #4 in Mojo's "Best Albums of 2002"Mojo (Publisher) - 5/02, p.99
"...Truly, a remarkable record..."NME (Magazine) - 4/20/02, p.22
8 out of 10 - "...it's a gripping darkness that doesn't often lift. It's hard going but worth it, and that is undoubtedly their point."Paste (magazine) - "It's Tweedy's growth as a lyricist that's most arreting....Tweedy alternates subtle and startling twists of phrase to paint pictures of intense longing, wistful nostalgia, moments of pure joy and utter despair."
