Listen to the musical collaboration between Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy and his 18-year-old son, and let us know what you think of it

Compared to the iTunes hijacking or deep web delving boundary pushing tactics of late, Jeff Tweedy’s double album may not appear too radical. But it’s good old fashioned music making that really demonstrates the Wilco frontman’s wry experimentalism: Throughout his career, he’s found himself a cult following and the lofty tag as the frontman of “the American Radiohead”; straddling dusty acoustic, Americana rock and leftfield button pushing all imbued with the same bittersweet beauty. His new solo (ish) venture looks to do the same - released on 22 September via dBpm Records, the double album, Sukierae, started out as 90 songs and was shaved down to just 20 for two distinct records.

Unlike a double LP driven by bulbous band egotism or lack of savvy editing skills, the record is born out of a love for the traditional album form. “I understand in this day and age there might not be many people who will listen to it that way, but it doesn’t matter – because I want to,” Jeff writes for a piece in praise of the album, published in this Friday’s G2 Film & Music. “I’m not a curmudgeon, a luddite or anti-modern technology doomsayer. I just want to listen to the album and have a feeling that one part has ended, and now I can take a little breather before I listen to the second part.”

From the “childish daydream” of Nobody Dies Anymore, partly inspired by a comment Jeff’s son made after 9/11, to Low Key’s autobiographical tale of a quiet, internal joy, Sukierae, this delicately dishevelled musical collaboration with his 18-year-old son and drummer Spencer Tweedy, is available to listen to below in full. Let us know what you make of it.
