!!!LMAO at this thread
As far as Country music goes, most of the stuff around now is simply pop with a country flavor to it-100% garbage.
Now if you are talking great country like Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Chet Atkins,etc, respect is due.
If you want to hear some great country playing, check out a disc Called "Return of the Hellcasters" by the Hellcasters. 3 studio country guys who RIP-one of the songs "Menage-The Beak/The Claw" is a full fingerpicked piece that is just INSANE. Light speed, hyper accurate and some the most insane string bending I have ever heard.

I've not even listened to or heard too much country cuz I'll know I won't like it, only country realeted stuff I can listen is western movie/tv themes, heh.

Cant really go wrong with any of the Hellecasters releases. All three studio efforts are quite full of intense guitar work from 3 masters of the telecaster. Will Ray, John Jorgenson, and Jerry Donohue burn, twist, and warp many a note in the interest of having "fun". They are insane.MetalChef said:

RULLO AND ME! OMG
I was raised on alot of diff. types of music, so there is some country I do like but not much of any of the new stuff... Just can't get into any of it.
Someone mentioned southern rock? O yes... I do love that stuff too. But I am a metal chick at HEART!

I'm in the same boat here. My parents are country fanatics and it was always playing on the stereo in the morning. When I hear those songs now, I don't know if I actually like them or if it's just a nostalgia thing.underullospell said:I was raised on alot of diff. types of music, so there is some country I do like but not much of any of the new stuff...

I like every music genre (some more than others), except country. It's just too cheesy and happy for me.

Along the lines of the aforementioned Hellecasters, The New Grass Revival was fun to listen to. They had some good lines. They were instrumental though and didn't have the cheesy lyrics to get past.
