Never thought they would get through with that Phil Collins song take me home. Just tuned in for a moment I don't care for most country music or country pop.

Stop listening to the radio baw.

Try independent bands that have told Nashville to go frick themselves:

Whiskey Myers

Shane Smith and the Saints

The Lowdown Drifters

The Turnpike Troubadours

Dolly Shine

Pecos & the Rooftops

Etc…

People are too lazy to go find real music. They just assume turn on 100.7 the tiger and listen to whatever they spoon feed them

No, just listen to the RIGHT radio. 95.9 The Ranch out of Ft. Worth has the good shite.

Essentially.

Even when they technically aren't.

There are like three chord progressions that are continually recycled over and over in country music these days. I honestly can't believe anybody with an IQ over 70 still listens to it. It's the most contrived, over produced, artificial, affected, plastic, overwrought, disingenuous pablum ever concocted. I think it's worse than modern pop. It actually IS modern pop, but with a cowboy hat and overdone southern accent (and those two things make it worse).

Don't believe me? Click here. They are practically interchangeable.

You mean mainstream country music artists. There’s tons of awesome country music being made right now. Just because you don’t hear it when you turn on corporate radio doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

This is the laziest take in the book.
