That was a lot of fun! Cool hearing the album stripped down, but more than anything, refreshing to listen to some live music during these strange times.
I really love their continued affinity for that great fuckin' song. I'd love to hear him do "Carmelita" some day.
Yeah they play it a lot haha I'd love a full 400 Unit cover of some of the more rollicking Excitable Boy tracks
Not linking it but the Saving Country Music review is a predictably, hilariously awful review of Jason Isbell being a big meanie to conservative fans mixed in with the obligatory “Is this country?” nonsense. Why must I always hate-read that guy lol.
Yea I read the first paragraph or so, got mad, closed the page. Dude doesn't deserve a platform at this point imo (if he ever did)
Despite the above warnings, I read it and my god..lol. Not sure how that qualifies as an album review when maybe a paragraph and a half talks about the album in an almost glanced over way. The other 50 or so paragraphs just shit on him..and then they give it a 7.5?? I was expecting like a 2 or 3.
Pre-Trump, that dude was at least a decent source for recommendations. Never a good writer, and always too preoccupied with the “is this country?” question, which...who cares? But he’s just become an apologist for right wing nuts, misogynists, etc.
