Album Description
EU 2 x LP pressing. Fourth album by critically-lauded alt.country act, delayed by contractual wrangles since June 2001. An experimental pop record in the vein of psychedelic-period Beatles or Beach Boys, produced in Chicago by the band, and inspired by their obsession with mysterious radio broadcasts. The album's title comes from YHF, a short-wave radio station operated by the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad.

Named in honor of the three-word codes used by short-wave radio operators, Wilco's fourth album sounds like a late-night broadcast of some weirdly wonderful pop station punctuated by static and the sonic bleed of competing signals. Songs that begin with simple, elegiac grace--"Ashes of American Flags" and "Poor Places"--end in a cathartic squall of distortion. The results can be initially jarring, but it's these tracks more than the sturdy jangle pop of "Kamera" or "Heavy Metal Drummer" that demand, and reward, repeated listens. Mixed by studio experimentalist Jim O'Rourke and produced by the band, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot harkens back to a time when the words "pop" and "sonic adventurism" weren't mutually exclusive. The Beatles and Kurt Cobain knew this, and clearly so do Jeff Tweedy and company. --Keith Moerer
