Plenty of good modern country music out there, you just have to look for it. Tyler Childers and Colter Wall are some famous ones that spring to mind, but there's many others.
"You just have to look for it" reinforces the OP and his point
I mean that's the case for any genre. Time filters out the bad stuff from the past, the good survives to reach new generations. Now we get to do the filtering for future generations.
Nah, I'm sure there's plenty of amazing songs we'll never get to hear. I'm just glad I heard this absolute banger before I died
NSFW I think https://youtu.be/U6zMjIZwbBk?si=54WM9wWCzVSv41S2
Sturgill Simpson and Jason Isbell too
Corn Lund
Edit: CORB, lol autocorrect
Horse Soldier, Horse Soldier is one of my go-to shower karaoke songs 🎵
I'm guessing you meant Corb? If so, he has the odd song, like The Truck got Stuck, that are more mass appeal. But he has so many amazing songs
Lol yes. He's a country guy who still sees the medium as a storytelling tradition. Really appreciate it.
Brent Cobb has some good songs. Lost Dog Street Band is pretty good too.
I really love "Sarah Shook and The Disarmers" as well. They actually go by River Shook now I think, but the band still uses their dead name.
A bit more on the folk side than country, but "Nick Shoulders and The Okay Crawdads" is one of my absolute favorite bands these days. They just put out a new album too and I can't recommend it enough.
Meh. Depends on band/genre. There's Green Day is Metallica's kill em all radio for some reason. I love both bands, but they're not really related.
There's static-x and Korn in megadeth's radio.
If you go to cannibal corpse's radio, out of 2.5 hrs of music/40-50ish songs, you'll see 6 songs by cattle decapitation, 4 of which from the same album. For a genre with hundreds of bands, that's piss poor variety. And ofc bunch of other bands in there there aren't death metal such as slayer or venom.
Sorry, end of rant.
