I believe you are over-generalizing, as many people do. Country is a broad and rich musical style. If it doesn't resonate with you, fine. Just own your opinion.
This is absolutely true. There are so many different types of country music spanning such a large period of time. To say it's all mellow and uninteresting is just crazy. The problem is that when people hear the term "country" the immediately thing of the poppy, sappy junk that gets such heavy radio play. There is some great stuff out there, especially if you try going back a decade or two...or three.
