“Tired of Taking It Out On You“ by Wilco | Cruel Country

The dynamic Chicago rock band Wilco returns with its 12th studio album, the first of its kind. Cruel Country is the band’s exploration of the genre they’ve often been defined by but, until now, never fully embraced. The double album features 21 Jeff Tweedy-penned tracks, made almost entirely of live takes, created with all six members together in The Loft for the first time since the 2011 release The Whole Love. Cruel Country will be available as a digital download on May 27 and is available for preorder now: Catch the band on tour this summer in North America and Europe!
