A few weeks ago, Wilco announced that their 12th studio album, Cruel Country, will be released later this month. Today, Wilco shared the latest single from that record. Titled “Tired of Taking It Out on You” [which follows “Falling Apart (Right Now)”], the song’s lyrics focus on self-introspection.
In a statement, Tweedy explained more:
“I’ve realized over the years that a lot of the songs I’ve written have worked as reminders to myself to pay attention to various things. Sometimes I think I’ve figured out how the world works in some small way, and I worry I’ll forget it if I don’t sing it back to myself occasionally. This song, I believe, is going to come in handy for just that purpose. I’m a person who needs to stay alert to how I’m treating others when I’m not feeling my best. And now that I mention it, when I look around, it seems like a lot of us have been taking things out on each other when we would be better served striving for understanding and empathy. I’m just trying to be honest with myself, and I guess I’m hoping if this song can help me focus on that, maybe someone else could find it useful in the same way.”
Additionally, Wilco announced that their Solid Sound Festival that takes place in Massachusetts later this month will be livestreamed. The band added dates to their 2022 tour, which you can see below:
