Been meaning to get back to comment on this thread. It has grown on me a lot and I no longer think it's terrible

I was in the same boat. I HATED it on my first listen. Sucked it up and played it again the next day and it started growing on me. It's pretty awesome. And the live version the poster on the last page posted made it SOOOO much better than I thought it was

So I picked this album up on RSD due to so many on here raving about Sturgill. Not knowing much about him, I figured "what the hell, it's only one record". I have listened to this album about 5 times in the last 5 weeks, and it gets better with each spin.
I guess initially I was sort of negatively biased as it falls in the "country" genre, of which I am not a huge fan of...but classifying this as country is sort of like classifying Lyle Lovett as country--which is a stretch.
I suppose the last 20 years of Bro Country has put such a negative connotation on the genre that when a fantastic classic country album by a very talented musician comes out, it's tough to get out from under the stigma.
Long story short...great friggin' record!
