The Minus 5 are an indie-pop/rock collective helmed by Scott McCaughey often collaborating with R.E.M.'s Peter Buck along with a multitude of other artists. On "down with wilco" they feature 4 members of...wilco (fresh off "yankee hotel foxtrot") across most tracks, sporting their instrumental proficiency and americana but not the experimentalism. This makes for a good set of songs from "the days of wine and booze" to "dear employer (the reason i quit)" with funny lines like "i'm dj mini-mart, cuz that's where i work" and "There's nothing worse than a narcissist / Working a disaster nurse / She ends up versus the goddamn / Centre of the universe". Or on "i'm not bitter" -- "Bitterness is reserved for stupid people / Not for someone intelligent like me" -- because he's "not bitter / just a lot". Tweedy sings on "The Town That Lost Its Groove Supply" and "The Family Gardener". The Minus 5 are one of those artists representing the antithesis of indie rock, witty and disarming, mundane and self-referential.
