Damn, dude. I only met Jimmy a few times years and years ago, but he was always a fun hang. Fuck this year.

Re: Sturgill Simpson Thread

I love it! First a "fuck you" to Elektra, and now an album full of tight bluegrassy retakes for his own label! I'm on my second listen, and it's going to be in the chill rotation for a while.

Re: The Unraveling

Cooley's vocals seem to get lost in the mix, and at least on my car's audio setup, sound muddy to me. I just think he has a hard voice to mix over distorted guitars, period. It's just so much low mids which is the same spot as the guitars. It can be an issue live at times, to be honest. Patterson h...

Thanks to those who hit me up with the drop! After about 6-7 listens, I'm really loving this album. I knew it would be politically driven, and that's fine considering the times, but this is just a great album. To compare- the latest Avett Brothers (of whom I am a big fan as well) album is "theme dri...

I really want to withhold my judgment until I hear an "official" copy of the record (as some of the production likely will come across better, naturally), but so far I really, really like it. Upon each listen it's grown on me, and I am hearing different things each time. It also sounds more "open" ...
