What Your Favorite Album of 2025 Says About You 2

-------

Tyler Childers - Snipe Hunt
You have a weird ass sense of humor but keep it under wraps at work. You’ve longingly stared out a rain streaked window while listening to this and considered calling your dad, but decided against it. When discussing this album online, you insist to detractors that there’s nothing political about it, but code switch around your liberal friends and mention Snipe Hunt’s “clearly anti-Capitalist” bent. You’re “Appalachia sober” (only drink moonshine when you’re around your old high school friends).

Parker McCollum - Self-Titled
You’re not exactly a country poser - you can put up a deer stand and your boots have been worked in - but you still reside on a cul-de-sac and drive a truck far too big and expensive for your needs. This is Parker’s first album in a while that you weren’t embarrassed to defend. Your girlfriend would drop you for him in a millisecond.

Chase Matthew - Chase
You fit the description of a bro-country fan circa 2014, but with a Malibu’s Most Wanted flair. Your parents are legitimately ashamed of you for multiple reasons, including the time you showed up to church in a white tee, gold chain, and sagging pants. Your girlfriend has been ‘about to turn 18’ for a couple years now. You don’t listen to Morgan Wallen, because he’s “too country.”

Jason Isbell - Foxes in the Snow
You sound like an NPR host in person, but every host of The View at once when you post on Threads or Bluesky. You’re torn between loyalty to Jason and your feminist obligation to believe Amanda on their whole divorce situation, so you just avoid the topic altogether. You’ve maintained friendships with MAGA folks, but have restarted your smoking habit so you can go outside when politics comes up at parties. You occasionally mix in some pop-country to lighten your mind, but only on YouTube so it doesn’t show up in your Apple Music history.

Jessie Murph - Sex Hysteria
You are the female version of a Chase Matthew fan. For some reason, you still drive your ex-boyfriend’s low rider. Your parents want you to put on a swimsuit with more bottom coverage when you lay out at the trailer park’s pool. You have a confederate flag tattoo above a Juicy tattoo on your thigh. You have been in more fights than the Paul brothers combined.

Tom Cruise Country Reaction Gifs

Why is the country station playing a song with no twang, no story, no steel guitar, no fiddle, and no point?

Every time I piss off some Jason Aldean fans on Facebook

If you're loudly listening to Bailey Zimmerman beside me at Sonic

Them: Don't get too excited but Cody Jinks' new album comes out next week
Me:

Nashville record exec when they sign a TikTok star with no discernible talents besides being handsome

When somebody throws on some Johnny Lee

"Morgan Wallen is the GOAT"

When I see names like Josh Ross and Corey Kent and George Birge on the country chart

The Facebook comments when I post a positive meme about Tyler Childers or Jason Isbell

"Epstein files"   🤝   "what was thrown off Tallahatchie bridge"

When she texts you a Jelly Roll song she likes

I miss when women country singers' songs were all about:

When you just sold off the last of the Oxy and hear there's a hick-hop mudding event this weekend

Jul 3, 2025

M*A*S*H Country Reaction Gifs

Which unreleased song are you mad that Tyler Childers isn't putting on his next album?

When Taste of Country decides to post 14 more stories about the failing economy and closing brick & mortar stores

When I post memes about Morgan Wallen on Facebook damn near every day and somebody has the nerve to ask who that is

"Zach Bryan is the greatest living songwriter"

When you talk shit about Jason Aldean around your mentally deficient coworker

Here's to light beers, smoked meats, and cranking some Waylon to celebrate America's 249th birthday

A Kane Brown fan trying to defend their opinion

When the on-hold music is pop country

Good Christian boy listens to Jason Isbell once

What's your favorite Wheeler Walker Jr song about?

When your friend has to go see Hardy with his wife

Have a nice 4th of July!
