Interesting that you liked 'Applied Science' and don't like Sexton; that's his standout track! I guess their lyrics do suck unless your high, but lyrics aren't really a concern of mine anyways...

I agree with you about their earlier albums being good, I even like the self-titled as it was the album that I first heard. I eventually came to appreciate Transistor as well, despite my initial reluctance. After that, boring sappy shyte.

But uh, that video is complete crap, I don't see that turning a hater into a fan in a million years.

I know. It's just nearly impossible to find a high quality YouTube video of one of their older songs. And I have been playing that song repeatedly on grooveshark this week sooo I figured I'd give it a try...

i can't come up with an artist off the top of my head worth mentioning...there are quite a few that don't even merit a name drop.

i will say that i absolutely refuse to listen to the entire genre of country. even if someone showed me a country song and i actually liked it, i would still - purely out of principle - refuse to ever download, buy, or in any way associate myself with that form of music.

sadly, no.

maybe it is because everyone i met in my musically formative years who listened to country happened to be a backwoods hick. then, realizing i was from the south and may potentially be grouped in with this sad niche of society, i revolted against anything about it (accent and music included). to this day, i just can't find anything i enjoy about country. it really rubs me the wrong way.

I also agree, no country for sidewinder. I can stand a bit of classic country here or there, but I won't purposely put it on. There's some slightly twangy indie rock I like too, but that's the extent of it. Cowboys can suck it otherwise.

i just don't like current pop. they say they enjoy making music, and they bull**** people because talking pointlessly, overdo the backbeat so you can't recognize it, autotune it, and sell it for $20.00, which is $20.00 more than it's worth is what they do, and they make too much money for total crap. also, i associate current pop with people who say "so last week", and those people need to GO THE **** AWAY! FROM ANY TRACE OF EXISTANCE, THEY NEED TO BE GONE!

^Probably one of the reasons I liked it, he did do a good job in that one to be honest. I think it's about time for them to call it quits though, they're 40 year old guys singing about how "Guns (Are For Pussies)"
