Shit like this and the opening theme for Old Gods of Appalachia make me mad that I spent so long avoiding country music because of how bad most of the commercial stuff is. I want to hear a man play a banjo in a way that suggests he has seen the devil
I am here to pitch to you Murder By Death because this is their EXACT energy, literally have an album about the devil waging war against a town in Mexico
Yeah, if you want me to listen to country, aim for that bleak "Panthers on the Mountainside" stuff.
Gotta check out some of the suggestions here, for sure.
