    Plenty of good modern country music out there, you just have to look for it. Tyler Childers and Colter Wall are some famous ones that spring to mind, but there’s many others.

      I really love “Sarah Shook and The Disarmers” as well. They actually go by River Shook now I think, but the band still uses their dead name.

      A bit more on the folk side than country, but “Nick Shoulders and The Okay Crawdads” is one of my absolute favorite bands these days. They just put out a new album too and I can’t recommend it enough.

        I’m guessing you meant Corb? If so, he has the odd song, like The Truck got Stuck, that are more mass appeal. But he has so many amazing songs

          Lol yes. He’s a country guy who still sees the medium as a storytelling tradition. Really appreciate it.

        Meh. Depends on band/genre. There’s Green Day is Metallica’s kill em all radio for some reason. I love both bands, but they’re not really related.

        There’s static-x and Korn in megadeth’s radio.

        If you go to cannibal corpse’s radio, out of 2.5 hrs of music/40-50ish songs, you’ll see 6 songs by cattle decapitation, 4 of which from the same album. For a genre with hundreds of bands, that’s piss poor variety. And ofc bunch of other bands in there there aren’t death metal such as slayer or venom.

        Sorry, end of rant.
