I think this piece makes a lot of good points regarding those who are primarily drawn to contemporary mainstream country music. I know that 99% of it sounds sickeningly sweet and safe to my ears. Then again, 98% of rock and roll doesn't do much for me either.

If you're interested in a country-rock band with an extraordinary songwriter, here's The Bottle Rockets brilliant tune, Kerosene, a tale of horrific death in rural America. I finally get to see them in May!
