Tenth studio album from Chicago's Wilco. Schmilco was originally written and recorded during the same sessions that led to 2015's Star Wars. The songs that make up Schmilco trade out the fuzzy experimentation of Star Wars in favor of a more wistful acoustic sound. It's a low key and intimate affair. Twelve tracks in all. Released by dBpm Records on indie exclusive colored vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with a download code.
