Uncle Tupelo CD Is Reissued
Pitchfork looks at the reissue of Uncle Tupelo’s 1990 debut, “No Depression“, and pronounces: ‘Uncle Tupelo is typically evoked in discussions of the two outfits it birthed (Wilco and Son Volt), but the band’s 1990 debut is a significant record independent of its fallout. Jeff Tweedy and drummer Mike Heidorn were 22 and Jay Farrar was 23 when they arrived at Fort Apache to record “No Depression,” and the tangling of sensibilities yielded something remarkable: a raw, lonesome clatter, the singular sound of Midwestern kids getting loud and desperate.’
