You heard American aquariums new album? It’s pretty good but damn BJ went heavy on the politics.

I'll take Childers over both right now.

Nah, I haven’t heard it. That’s not surprising though.

Collective Guilt, Identity Politics, The Politics Of Victimization, attributing virtue ( and by extension non virtue) to race, hysterically reactionary interpretation of both history and current events...
What could possibly go wrong here?

And you soft-handed metrosexuals who have never worked a full day outside in your life need to stick with your R&B and boy-band pop and quit screwing up real country music with your liberal whiny gay lamentations.
To make matters worse, there's this other White SJW virtue signaller performing (get this) a country song opposing the war, mass incarceration, and wealth inequality. It's basically a nonstop whine about all the supposed injustices in society.
Yep, someone should tell Johnny Cash people want real country music, not this "Man in Black" garbage.

Sturgill is a bigger commie than Jason, prob
Isbell was a gritty, opposite of Nashville guy who is a really good songwriter.
Now he just writes trite, eyeroll-inducing SJW shite. Our era of "political music" is pathetic. Vietnam and national guard shootings and Jack Johnson were their subjects, ours include the audacity of having a border and white women opening a taco truck.

Look, you’re triggered and I understand. This crap is probably all you’ve ever really listened to. I don’t blame YOU. What I recommend is for you to actually listen to some of the great country artists from before 1997 and compare honestly with what is being expelled like vomit from the genre today. The people in this thread have heard what’s being played today (we can’t avoid it bc it’s everywhere). But I think kids have been exposed to the poppy and rap crap coming out of Nashville for so long now, that they’ve forgotten how truly liberating, raw, and fun true country music can be and was.
I’m amazed at how you just keep showing how ignorant you are about Isbell and the others mentioned in this thread

I complained that I was not a genius, until I saw a man with no brains...

For the life of me, I don't understand how he's so popular. I'm not implying that I necessarily dislike his music, but his body of work is just not that good to garner the admiration he has received.
He is one of the best songwriters around right now. He isn’t just good because new country sucks. I would put him more in the genre of Americana, where you find today’s best songwriters (Avett Brothers, Ryan Adams, Isbell, and so on). I am not a fan of Isbell’s pretentious and ill informed acception of black lives matter, but he is popular for a reason. If a country fan here is saying he sucks, they probably haven’t listened to him and just read the thread title.

What you're failing to understand is that you're criticizing music you've obviously never listened to by lumping it in with a style of country that it is very different from. It's like criticizing Metallica (in the 80's) by comparing them to Poison.

I honestly think he is like Fred and thinks this thread is about Jason Aldean

As you State, Jason Isbell MUSICALLY is a clear repudiation of the worst trends in country music. Ironically for many blasting him here, he is an heir to the tradition of great songwriting, great musicianship, non- saccharine bs (that has ruined country radio) that the greats of the genre would applaud. None of that makes the substance of his politics any less giggly though.

Sooooo.... are you saying Johnny Cash was a whiny liberal who’s music was just a bunch of gay lamentation, cuz it sounds like that’s what you’re saying..... if so, then I would like to respectfully disagree... I don’t ever remember JC stating he had “white privileged”.

He's gonna bring a lot of bleeding apologists into a great genre of Music.
Hope his career last as long as Vanilla Ice
