So Much Hate

[wesfau2]

So so much hate for each and every one of you assholes that failed to scream the name until your throat was raw and bloody.

There are a few mild mentions, buried deep in threads of no note.

Unless you were standing on your desk and screaming "JASON ISBELL" every minute of your life until right fucking now, you are guilty as well.

Holy Fucking Mother of Buddha.  This motherfucker writes some of the best lyrics that I've ever tried to wrap my head around.

For the (until now) uninitiated, start with Southeastern.  I don't really know what to call his sound.  He's not quite "outlaw" country a la Waylon (although he claims quite a party rep).  He's not folky enough to be Guthrie/Dylan (even though most of his songs are rural/roots based).  It's...Gothic-American-Blues-Americana.

I have been forcing everyone in my familial/friend circle to listen to him anytime I have control over the audio portion of our association.  Sample lyrics:

"She said "It's none of my business, but it breaks my heart"; dropped a dozen cheap roses in my shopping cart; made it out to the truck without breaking down; everybody knows you in a speed trap town; It's a Thursday night but there's a high school game; sneak a bottle up the bleachers and forget my name; these 5A bastards ran a shallow-cross; it's a boy's last dream and a man's first loss...."

"There's a man who walks beside me, it's who I used to be; and I wonder if she sees him and confuses him for me; and I wonder who she's pining for on nights I'm not around; could it be the man who did the things I'm living down..."

"Go leave your boots by the bed, we ain't leaving this room; Til someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom; It's cold in this house and I ain't goin out to chop wood; So cover me up...and know you're enough...to use me for good."

You just gave AU1 a terminal hard on.  He's Jason's Gate Kitten.

[Kaos]

No thank you.

Welcome to 2001 when we was playing with the Drive By Truckers.  Might want to check out the "Watch Ya Listening To?" thread.  Also check out some of the country music discussions.  Great songwriter, great guitarist, has become to outspoken with his politics here lately.

Known who he is for a long time. Back to DBT but never listened intently until Southeastern.

I think he’s great but can’t say I’m as big of a fan as AUT1. No particular reason. But he’s much better as a writer when sober.

His wife is HOT.

I don’t like tattoos but having a Bob Dylan lyric on his arm is in his favor with me.

You should tattoo a vagina on the back of your head

(GF): “I know what we could do that would be a blast today, let’s make fun of people that have had brain surgery! That would be hilarious. And then maybe we could go by the nursing home and spread some oil on the floor.”

I avoid the "whatcha listening to" thread because so many of you people listen to such garbage.  This national treasure deserves his OWN thread.

Isbell has been brought up several times in Good Country Music Still Exists.

That's a fucking fantastic idea!  What time do you want to do this?

Well he looks like a first class douche. I guess he actually is one.

Oh please, he looks like a 2nd class douche at best. Where do you get this 1st class stuff from?

[Kaos]

He’s a political activist scuzz nozzle.  He’s got all the lyrical talent of Master P.

This is shitty music performed by a shitty excuse for a man.

I tried “no thank you”. But that wasn’t enough was it?

And he looks like a douche. He also looks like gomer pyles lost bastard son.

His stuff sounds like some hybrid folk rock diarrhea.

Wes, before you start banning. just know I said that I like his music and that his wife is hot. She’s extremely hot.

And plays a pretty mean fiddle, too.

[Buzz Killington]

I celebrate his entire catalog

[Kaos]

And plays a pretty mean fiddle, too.

Sit down in that chair right there and let me show you how it’s done.

There is fire on mountain.
Run, boy.
Run.

Wes only considers banning if you say the first three letters of Japanese.
