I like the album for what it is though I certainly like when they rip it more.

 

Awful news. RIP to the one of the best.

 

So we’re gonna pretend that doesn’t kind of slap

 

And I’m straight edge

 

Lance Roark - Bad Reputation

 

Starting to tally my year-end list, and my favorite country/folk-coded albums of the year are James McMurty, Ruston Kelly, Ken Yates (not really country but belongs on people’s lists), SG Goodman, and Caroline Spence. Some absolutely wonderful songwriting.

 

Did you listen to the Molly Tuttle record?

 

Nope, don’t know her

 

I think you'd be a fan:

 

No Stephen Wilson Jr. thread? This dude is something special. That rare breed of storyteller / song writer.

 

Blue Star is one of my favorites from the new Treaty album. So many hilarious cameos in this video.

 

Good song and funny video but its toward the bottom of my favorites on the new record (which is really good btw).

 

Really heartbroken about Raul Malo from The Mavericks passing away. One of the greatest live bands I've ever seen and Raul was one of my favorite vocalists in country music. They're obviously more famous for their 90s hits, but their records post-reunion are seriously underrated, especially In Time and En Español. Here's their Tiny Desk from a few years ago:

 

Interesting. Love the album with the exception of that song lol

Have you guys heard the Carter Faith album? Number 2 on RS Country’s list, some real good stuff here. Very self assured for a debut record and seems to be getting a good push.

 

It’s a good record. I heard of her from a song she did with Ryan Hurd about my hometown:

Literally just heard of her from that article I linked in the post right before yours haha.

 

“Solid Country Gold” by Parker McCollum, sheeeeeesh. Talk about something that’s gonna make my summer playlist next year.

 

This probably describes a good chunk of this thread

 

I actually like Johnny Cash as a kid, before I discovered (pop) punk

 

My culture is not his costume

 

amazing song

 

Some real 90s country revival stuff right here
