I really want to love Wipe That Smile but Raine at the end just ruins all that it was building to for me. I always had a soft spot for Love and Trust but even it irks me nowadays. Raine's voice before and after this record I find immensely more enjoyable.
The music itself is pretty good. Will always love Walking in Circles, no doubt. Just an irritating listen to me on like half the songs.

I wonder if this was intentional, an effect of taking so much time off between albums, or just a natural effect of aging.
With other singers who've used falsetto in the past (although not the same style of falsetto as Raine), I've noticed similar changes in the voices of Carl Newman and even Jeff Tweedy (to a lesser degree since he didn't do as much falsetto earlier in Wilco's career). Anyone else notice differences in other bands with falsetto singers?
Makes me think that it's just a natural effect of aging.
