Shortly after the release of the band's major label debut album "Anodyne", Farrar announced his decision to leave the band due to a soured relationship with his co-songwriter Tweedy.

Their music often invoked religious imagery dealing with conflict, redemption, punishment, and guilt through David Eugene Edwards's lyrics and the heavy use of traditional bluegrass, gospel, and Appalachian instrumentation cross-bred with rock.  For the bulk of its career, the band consisted of Edwards, Jean-Yves Tola, and Pascal Humbert, the latter two formerly of the French band Passion Fodder.  After releasing four studio albums and touring extensively, the group broke up in 2005, citing "mostly political and spiritual" differences.  The members remain active in the groups Woven Hand and Lilium. Jeffrey Scot Tweedy (born August 25, 1967) is an American songwriter, musician, and record producer best known as the singer and guitarist of the band Wilco.  Tweedy, originally from Belleville, Illinois, started his music career in high school in his band The Plebes with Jay Farrar, which subsequently after several years formed into the alternative country band Uncle Tupelo.  After Uncle Tupelo's fourth studio album, the band broke up in 1994 due to conflict between Tweedy and Farrar, prompting Tweedy to form Wilco, with Farrar forming the band Son Volt.  Wilco's first album "A.M.", released in 1995, received mixed reviews from critics, though Wilco later found critical and commercial success on their later albums, most notably with "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" and "A Ghost Is Born", the latter of which received a Grammy for Best Alternative Album in 2005.  Across Tweedy's career he has released fifteen studio albums, including four with Uncle Tupelo, ten with Wilco, and one with his son Spencer, along with numerous collaborations with other musicians, most notably "Mermaid Avenue" with Billy Bragg.
