The Current State of Country Music

It really is quite sad that Strugill Simpson and Jason Isbell are the best "musicians" that this "genre" can produce these days.
They are as bad if not worse than bro country.

Steve Earle is the last of the hardcore troubadours.

Sturgis and Isbell aren't country though. They are more like Americana music

You're right, the boundaries have shifted. I'm glad they have, too. It's made for some fine songwriting by some keen minds...Bingham, Isbell, Stapleton, He who shall remain nameless, etc...
Country music, as far as Nashville is concerned, has "nuked the fridge". It's bubblegum bullshite meant for prom night.

Sturgill is causing Burt Reynolds to melt his tits off

I'm glad Sturgill is losing the horns. Hopefully the music will go back to focusing on his overdone fake country twang.

High Top Mountain could be classified as a country album IMO...the last two, great albums, but not really country.
Isbell is not country.
Cody Jinks is the best country artist for my taste right now.

They aren't by a long shot, however the listening public and the record companies won't allow the real talent to be heard.

There's good country out there, you just have to look for it. Guys like Dallas Easton, Cody San Pedro, Bayliss Johnson, and Nathan Austin are all top notch.

I don't get the praise for Isbell, his shite is too boring and slow. At least Sturgill plays fast sometimes

Absolutely agree with this. Isbell has his moments (just like Sturgill) but both of them are a little too slow for me. I listen to music to get away from having to think and listening to Sturgill makes me concentrate too much on what he's saying.
