The new song by Lady Antebellum has a Mumford sound to it. However, Lewis’s point relates to dozens of other recent releases as well. You have to REALLY strain to hear it in Florida-Georgia Line’s “Stay”, particularly at the beginning of the first chorus. If you call Kacey Musgravea out you gotta call that steaming pile of dung out too. Here is the teaser video for “That Ain’t Country” and the lyrics are included below: He came off as honest and willing to call out country music for it’s lack of quality, in my opinion.
I have always thought of Kenny as someone who wanted to have a Jimmy Buffett lifestyle and why he has had some bad ones, he has had a good number of very solid songs also. I have met him a couple of times and he is a humble guy who loves to sing and is not afraid to speak his opinion.
Personally I have a lot of respect for the guy. Well that was certainly a refreshing change from the drum machine new country rap bullshit. so I know what the real country music is. Thomas Rhett (Akins) and his dad Rhett Akins really need to receive more criticism for their roles in the devolution of mainstream country I think.
The sound of the guitar, the timing, whatever their signature was, it was apparent instantly. No distorted hack rock guitars, and a psg played the way it was meant to be played, I had my doubts as Stained was a pretty awful band but this is pretty darn good. I don’t know but if its good music I’ll listen to it. Instead of singing "at the twilight's last gleaming," Lewis sang, "were so gallantly streaming," words that come later on. Him name dropping Aldean doesn’t surprise me at all. Aaron Lewis (born April 13, 1972) is an American singer, songwriter and musician who is best known as the lead vocalist, rhythm guitarist and founding member of the alternative metal band Staind, with whom he released seven studio albums.Since 2010, he also pursues a successful solo career in country music with his debut EP Town Line, which was released on March 1, 2011 on Stroudavarious Records. Yeah he never left much of an impact on me as an artist.
Kenny Chesney is an odd name to drop in there on this. Im a huge DAC fan.
I’ve seen bad reviews but we all have different tastes and i respect everyone’s taste.
I actually like Aaron Lewis, especially “The Story Never Ends” from his first country EP. Aaron responds to the audience saying “Listen, I'm fucking good. The world-renowned musician rose to stardom in the early 2000s with the rock band Staind.
I feel like it could be a number of songs but I wonder if anybody knows which one specifically.I actually like Staind’s music and I appreciate that they seem to know who they are and stick to it. My nerves got the best of me and I am completely torn up about what happened. Even if his attempts at making country music seem to be a bit hamfisted, I do think he is making an honest effort to stay true to the genre. They have their hands in a ridiculous amount of truly awful songs as writers and now the son as a weak ass singer. I still don’t like his voice or delivery of a song and “Country Boy” was awful.
No wonder everyone likes this country song when the music is from the ” King of country’s”.
Either way it’s still bad. I agree, Chesney doesn’t really annoy me, I’d take him over the country rappers.
Does Lewis have a reputation of being arrogant?
When he FIRST emerged onto the scene, he probably thought he could be his usual arrogant self in carving a niche in country music. Talk about pandering so badly in that country boy song. I remember ‘That Ain’t My Truck’ and vaguely recall ‘Don’t Get Me Started’ but that’s about it. Lewis also has two sisters, Evyette and Rachel, as well as a brother, Jesse.On November 4, 2006, Lewis performed at his old high school in This article is about the musician. *We will not share your personal information or publish content without your permission. When some other rock artists try pain songs they sometimes just sound like they’re overreacting or whining. "There are times where I've sat there listening to the radio and a song by five different artists plays on the radio and the song never changes. That is his right. He has a distinctive phrasing that this song seems to fit without sound too staind-ish. I figured you were quoting.
Arron’s arrogance is what won the day for him in rock, but in country, you have to bring the “aw-shucks” attitude.
I really enjoyed The Road.
The problem is that the music sucks, and the way they sing about trucks and beer sounds so forced.
Yes, the songs were good and I believe the lyrics were heartfelt.
When they wrote a song, you instantly knew who it was.
He was an angry guy for awhile, but it seems like a wife and kids and some aging have really calmed him down and his music is reflecting that now.Endless Summer sucked, but I think even that song serves to prove the point that he is a real artist, not just a celebrity. I don’t know anything about his reputation and he didn’t really come off as arrogant to me in the above interview. I hope people who only listen to only country though, to give his band ‘Staind’, and his solo albums a chance.
I never got an arrogant or self-righteous sense from his music with Staind.
Call it the Mumfordization of pop country.
