The most significant factor in this nominal weird-out is the presence of producer Jim O'Rourke, whose avant-rock tendencies loom large here. Wilco: Jeff Tweedy (vocals, guitar); John Stirratt, Leroy Bach, Glenn Kotche, Jay Bennett.

Reviews4 out of 5 stars - "...This elegant, world-weary...album ploughs enthusiastically into the leftfield...", "...The record includes fragments of treated piano, static interference, and random noises....YANKEE isn't your typical Americana or alt-country record...", Ranked #2 on Spin's List of 2002's "Albums of the Year", Ranked #5 on Cmj's "Top 10 of 2002in, 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.", Ranked #4 in Uncut's "100 Best Albums of the Year" - "...Wilco's finest, its pretty electronic textures and melodicism making a heartbreaking album...", "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.", "...A beautifully strange mix of organic textures and oblique poetics, all of it gently pulsating with a backwoodsy tech-head feel...", Ranked #4 in Mojo's "Best Albums of 2002in, "The work of a band breaking free from gravity with the confidence that strains of roots, prog, pop, and noise can peacefully coexist.", 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.", 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...", "...Truly, a Remarkable Record..."
