I mean it’s a straightforward, old school country record, built to be as inoffensive as humanly possible. Hank Hill can’t find a damn thing to complain about this record. It’s nice music made by god-fearing, decent people for listening to while dancing with your dog. That’s not what I look for in music, like, at all. I won’t be the one choosing this record if I end up hearing it again, but I won’t mind if someone puts it on because even though you might not believe it, I’m not that much of a buzzkill irl. This is music that takes no chances, stays firmly where it stands because you expect it to stand there, and the diversity of this record is limited to a change in tempo. I realize that’s not always a bad thing, but it’s not for me. Just not white enough to enjoy nice music. 3/10
