Pabs Hernandez, a reviewer for Lost at Sea praised the album‰Ûªs ‰ÛÏbreezy atmosphere and pacing‰Û?, and noted that it is not ‰ÛÏeasily judged upon first listen.‰Û? Overall, Hernandez stated that it ‰ÛÏmay be no masterpiece, but at worst it's a more than worthy entry into Wilco's laudable catalogue.‰Û? Reviewer Greg Locke praised the record as ‰ÛÏone of the best albums of the year‰Û?, calling it a ‰ÛÏtimeless record, full of sweet, hopeful sophistication and class‰Û? and ‰ÛÏa lean, mean, soulful album.‰Û? Like Hernandez, Locke acknowledged that the album could not be properly judged just on the first listening. The NPR review also had a positive take on the record. While the NPR reviewer stated that the recording ‰ÛÏisn't groundbreaking‰Û?, they praised its ‰ÛÏcoherent musical expression‰Û? and emphasis on ‰ÛÏsolid songcraft without pretense‰Û? which created a ‰ÛÏsatisfying and melodically sound albu.‰Û?

While waiting for the commercial release of Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, Wilco agreed to support R.E.M. collaborator Scott McCaughey for an album release by The Minus 5. They scheduled a recording session for September 11, 2001, but were distraught about the 9/11 terrorist attacks that day. Late that day, Wilco tickets and McCaughey agreed to "create something good in the world right now" and record some material. Influenced by Bill Fay's Time of the Last Persecution, The Minus 5's Down with Wilco tickets was released in 2003.

During 1999, Warner Brothers was looking to help repay a $16 billion debt acquired during the recent merger of parent company Warner Communications with Time Inc.. As a result, Warner's imprints were under pressure to produce musical acts that would yield hit records. The head of Reprise, Howie Klein, who had previously authorized the release of Being There as a double album, was willing to let Wilco tickets produce Summerteeth without label input. When Klein played the album for Reprise's A&R department, however, they demanded a radio single for the album. Wilco tickets agreed to do this "once and once only" and recorded a radio-friendly version of "Can't Stand It" at the request of David Kahne, the head of the A&R department. The single version of "Can't Stand It" failed to cross over from Triple-A radio to alternative rock stations. Consequently, the album sold only 200,000 copies, significantly less than Being There. This was despite critical acclaim; the album placed eighth on the Pazz & Jop critics' poll for 1999.

I know ninety-nine percent of our fans won't like that song, they'll say its a ridiculous indulgence. Even I don't want to listen to it every time I play through the album. But the times I do calm myself down and pay attention to it, I think it's valuable and moving and cathartic. I wouldn't have put it on the record if I didn't think it was great ‰Û? I wanted to make an album about identity, and within that is the idea of a higher power, the idea of randomness, and that anything can happen, and that we can't control it.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot was rejected by Reprise Records, but released by Nonesuch Records. Both record labels were subsidiaries of Warner Brothers. The album is Wilco's best selling album to date.

Wilco tickets managed to negotiate terms to a buy-out from Reprise. Music journalist Greg Kot claims that instead of financial compensation, Wilco tickets agreed to leave the label with the master tapes of Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. The label was already receiving bad publicity for their treatment of Wilco tickets and were willing to accommodate Wilco's request. However, the All Music Guide claims that Wilco tickets "bought the finished studio tapes from Warner/Reprise for a reported $50,000 and left the label altogether" after Wilco tickets was "nwilling to change the album to make it more 'commercially viable'" To curb the negative publicity, Reprise began to invest more in bands such as The Flaming Lips. Lead singer Wayne Coyne once remarked:

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

A number of songs were recorded with this theme, including "Sunken Treasure" and "Hotel Arizona", however, Wilco tickets also recorded a number of songs in the style of A.M. Wilco tickets named the album Being There after a Peter Sellers film of the same name. The band went through some personnel changes during the recording sessions. Max Johnston left Wilco tickets because Wilco tickets felt that Wilco's role in Wilco tickets had diminished in favor of Bennett; Wilco tickets had also been replaced by violinist Jesse Greene on one track because Wilco tickets felt that Johnston was unable to play the part. Bob Egan of Freakwater briefly joined Wilco tickets in the studio, playing pedal steel guitar on "Far, Far Away" and "Dreamer in My Dreams", and then became an official member in September 1996.

Shortly after the recording sessions for Mermaid Avenue Vol. II, Wilco tickets purchased a studio in Irving Park, Chicago, which they named the Wilco tickets Loft. The band recorded some tracks in the studio in early 2000 for a fourth studio album. In May 2000, Jeff Tweedy requested to perform with Jim O'Rourke at a festival in Chicago; Tweedy was a fan of O'Rourke's Bad Timing. O'Rourke introduced Tweedy to drummer Glenn Kotche, and the trio enjoyed working together so much that they decided to record an album as a side project named Loose Fur. Wilco tickets had recorded an entire album of music at this point, but Tweedy was unhappy with the drum parts. He enjoyed Kotche's contributions to Loose Fur so much that Tweedy brought him into the studio to re-record some demos. Some believe that Tweedy sought to make Wilco tickets sound like Loose Fur after officially replacing Ken Coomer with Kotche in January 2001.
