The lyrics are CRUSHING sometimes, and are surprisingly relatable like no other genre i’ve encountered.

love when a country song takes itself beyond parody…
Yeah the boys 'round here
Drinking that ice cold beer
Talkin' 'bout girls, talkin' 'bout trucks
Runnin' them red dirt roads out, kicking up dust
Chew tobacco, chew tobacco, chew tobacco, spit
Lay a blanket on the ground
Kissing and the crickets is the only sound

It may be my avoidant or counter culture tendencies, but with the prevalence of brat summer I wanna go in the opposite direction with this bluegrass album. I feel a resurgence in actual country music now that post-9/11 reactionary conservative country has gone full on brain rot. (it literally struck me so hard when I realized pop-country music is just childrens music for maga.) So I’m happy to start finding the true voices of the genre.

The most I’ve loved a pure radio banger in a long time. I can never listen just once. Jack Doyle was recently talking to me about how country music is cool because there’s usually a punchline to the lyrics. This song is a perfect example of that. Instead of writing a classic heartsick lyric like countless other songs, this takes the trope and turns it into something clever, concrete, simple, relatable, all setting you up for a punchline. It’s quite a different approach to writing than something abstract and open to interpretation, and it’s so skillful to me. Kind of blown away by lyrics like this. Nothing against the abstract, we all love that too, but writing stuff like this is hard.
