> I’ll probably be flying solo with this one, but REAL country. Not this new age twangy rock Big & Rich crap. I’m talking old school Willie Nelson, Randy Travis, The Judds, Charlie Pride, Waylon Jennings… Not that new country-rock isn’t good, but it’s just that REAL country has gotten left behind for rock with fiddles and country “fans” who don’t know who Ricky Skaggs is. OK, name this song:

you know what I was going to come into this thread and be the cocky “i have 3000+ “actual” records music nerd asshole who hates talking about music anyways” that i am, and be all like " i dont really care what other people appreciate", or say how half if not more on the bands mentioned are on MTV and super famous already.

but you my friend hit the nail right on the head. I want to high five you. Country music got bad when metallica did. I might even give it until the early-mid ninties. I dont even consider it country now. It is just really bad pop music made for moms, girls, necks, slow or “southern” folk, and trendy duchbags who think its badass to blast 106.5 , wear cowboy hats, and are probably secret brownie hounds anyways.

so yeah. people dont give “real” country music enough credit. :tup:  
-not metal bands playing watered down garbage.  
-not dudes making madddd E poppin beats on thier computers.  
-Not diplo  
\*Bjork is a good one.(locally). shes fucking amazing, and really huge.
