My Cousin Vinny Country Reaction Gifs

 *foul language warning*

Every old country blues song's opening line:

I'm so lonesome I could cry

[insert joke about Rascal Flatts that gets me cancelled]

Walker Hayes' next song mentions Olive Garden

If you don't like Ian Noe, I don't trust your taste in anything

Ask a Dustin Lynch fan why they like one of his songs and...

"You wanna go to the String Cheese Incident show with me?"

When that guy just said every Kane Brown song is a banger

When I show up to court in a "Who the F*** is Sturgill Simpson?" tee shirt

The Simpsons Country Reaction Gifs 3

 When a friend you haven't seen in a while comes to the party and he digs Tyler Childers too

My favorite Kid Rock song:

Me reading the comments when I post the dumbest fake news ever about Luke Bryan and his fans think it's real

When you can't even get away from Walker Hayes on the sports talk station

When you come to the office picnic and they're playing FGL

Ain't no point in getting out of bed if you ain't living the dream

From me to the song "Willin'":

When the DJ accidentally plays a country song made before 2009 and the listeners get pissed

A view inside the head of a Kane Brown fan

How to know if your trip to 
Laurel Cove Music Festival went well

Law and Order: SVU Country Reaction Gifs

Mom: Who's this Wheeler Walker Jr fella I've been hearing about? Play me something from him.
Me:

Kane Brown fan when somebody asks their name

First time somebody hears Sturgill sing live

Traditional country, outlaw country, Americana, roots rock, bro-country, alt-country, boyfriend country...

When you accidentally hear a few seconds of a Walker Hayes song while you're in a store and it gets stuck in your head

When a coworker says they love country music then mention their favorite band: Dan + Shay

Hey, you remember that country singer guy who claimed he flies a private jet and has thousands of bot followers?

When you drunkenly tell a friend one night that you own a Rascal Flatts CD and he tells everybody in the group chat

George Carlin Country Reaction Gifs

 There will be foul language. Duh.

-------

If somebody who hasn't listened to country radio since 1998 turns on country radio now

Just a big red goodbye in lipstick on the wall

Someone who says country music is dead is

When your wife has to stay with her sick mom and can't take the kids to the Luke Bryan concert

"Why won't you go with me to the Aldean show? You can just get drunk and talk trash."

Parker McCollum is talented and tall and handsome?

When you clicked play on Sturgill's Sound & Fury

If you're starting to think Walker Hayes isn't as bad as everybody says

You started listening to Morgan Wallen only because the left hates him, even though you don't like pop country?

Matthew's Top 10 Albums of 2021

These were counted in our year-end list.



By Matthew Martin


1- Morgan Wade- Reckless

There's not much to say about this album that hasn't been screamed from the rooftops already. Morgan Wade is an exceptional talent writing catchy songs. The production on this album is top notch and the band matches the energy on each song. The future is bright for Morgan Wade and if you aren't on the bandwagon, hurry up and hop on. Top Song: Wilder Days


2- Sturgill Simpson- The Dood and Juanita

When Sturgill goes country, Sturgill is at his very best. When Sturgill creates an album using Willie Nelson's Red Headed Stranger as a template, you know you're in for something seriously good. And, Sturgill doesn't disappoint. The album explores all different aspects of mountain music while telling a compelling story throughout the album. If this is, in fact, Sturgill's final album, it's a hell of note to go out on. Top Song: Shamrock or Ol Dood (Part I)


3- James McMurtry - The Horses & The Hounds

There isn't an artist out there who has gotten better with age more than James McMurtry. I truly believe that. No other artist has let their music and lyrical content match the lessons they have learned over their long lives the way McMurtry has. On what might be his best album, McMurtry gave up a good bit of the guitar playing to focus on the singing and it works. I miss the jangle of McMurtry's guitar at times, but his band more than makes up for it. Top Song: Canola Fields


4- Sierra Ferrell- Long Time Coming

No album surprised me more than this one. Sierra Ferrell knocked me off my feet with this grand slam of an album focused on old time country music. This is Appalachian music at it's best. The music and band are impeccable but Ferrell's voice matches and surpasses each. She is going to be a long time in this music business and look forward to seeing how to progresses moving forward. Top Song: West Virginia Waltz


5- Charles Wesley Godwin- How The Mighty Fall

By far my most anticipated album of the year was CWG's follow up to his debut album, Seneca. And he fully delivered. The band CWG compiled for this album made the perfect backdrop for these beautiful and tragic tales on this album. From the scratchy fiddle to the roaring guitar solos, this album is not to be missed. CWG also has some of his best work to date on this album and I believe there is no place to go but up for this talent. Top Song: Jesse


6- John R Miller- Depreciated

I had never heard of JRM, but this album changed that and for good reason. The lyrics are reminiscent of John Prine. The voice is reminiscent of Jay Farrar. What more could you ask for? Top Song: Shenenandoah Shakedown


7- Joshua Ray Walker- See You Next Time

For the final installment of Joshua Ray Walker's trilogy, JRW uses all the influences he has to create a distinct album that only he could pull off effectively. And you can't convince me that anyone right now has a better voice than JRW. Top Song: Flash Paper


8- Drayton Farley- A Hard Up Life

Seems like the last couple of years have been big for country music that is simple, direct, and cutting. From Tyler Childers to Zach Bryan, it's been a recipe for success and Drayton Farley is following that recipe to the same effect. This album is effective and devastating. I can't wait to see what this guy can do with a full band behind him. Top Song: Pitchin' Fits


9- Ottoman Turks- II

The boys for Dallas have done it again. They have created an album that is as much The Stooges as it is Dwight Yoakam. More people should know Ottoman Turks. If you don't know them, get to know them. Top Song: 35 to Life


10- Bo Burnham- Inside

Not a usual album for these lists here, but I can't help it. This album was incredible. You can watch the special on Netflix and it's great, but the music is what makes this. The album works just as effectively. I know there are a lot of albums that feel very appropriate to the times we are in- the mental anguish, the nerviness, the isolation- but there is none that is more effective at parsing out those feeling than this one. Truly an album for our times. Top Song: All Eyes On Me
