Wilco are going to start the work on the new album

Members of American country rock band Wilco revealed plans to start writing songs for new album within next several weeks. Musicians have recently taken a break after performing European tour in support of their latest studio effort Wilco (The Album). However, according to guitarist Pat Sansone, they are already thinking about next album.

"When I get back toward the end of the month, we're getting back together to start working, to start the first writing sessions for the record. We've done a little bit of brainstorming, but the real work is going to begin at the end of the month", said he.

The band's frontman Jeff Tweedy earlier revealed that they may follow Radiohead, who released their album In Rainbows through the Web letting fans to pay for it as much as they wanted. Wilco recently left their record label Nonesuch, and now are thinking about the ways to deal with their next record.

Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy said: "I know some of the guys in Radiohead and talk to them. When Radiohead streamed their album and let people pay what they wanted, I thought that was similar to what we had been doing for years, but we didn't take the money because we were on a major at the time".
