Why is this terrible genre of music allowed to exist?

>>72101259
Because americans and their precious wild west culture.

>>72101259
The Music Overlords have yet to address the issue, but soon they will, and their vengeance shall be swift and complete.

Why is rap allowed to exist? Why is metal allowed to exist? Those genres are 1000x worst than Country.

Modern country is too innocuous to hate, it's just pop with twangy guitars and fake southern accents.

my man hank 3 would like to have a word with all of you

Country is the ultimate pleb filter. Anyone who says they hate the whole genre shouldn't be on /mu/.

Modern country is total trash, but there is good country like these anons said.

Also EDM country remixes are probably the worst form of music, hands down.

Modern country is genuinely terrible.

>>72103795
This is true.

You definitely don't know what you're talking about if you believe that. There's great stuff coming out now, you just have to go beyond CMT to hear it.

1920s - 1970s country is pretty good, and the "alternative country" that sprung up in the 80s as a reaction to shitty Nashville pop stuff is good as well as well

>>72104368
Post some examples.

>>72104368
Wow you sure proved me wrong anon!

inb4 you link to Sturgill Simpson or Chris Stapleton or H3 or some similar hipster country shit.

>>72101259
Because it's not terrible. It's actually fantastic and more authentically raw and weird than half the shit that gets posted here.

>>72102946
Could you, like, find someone else to signal boost. Townes and Neil are great, but their way overrated here.

>>72103372
Love Johnny, if you've never listened to My Mother's Hymn Book, I recommend you fix that

>>72103469
Only good offspring of Hank Williams Sr.

Could you maybe try a little harder to not seem like a shitposter?

More like this?

modern country is shit because authentic America doesn't exist anymore

>>72104815
Well, shit, I just don't know how to compete with such a rock solid argument...

Modern country is still good though

>>72104921
It never existed, but that's a silly argument against country's existence

>>72104948
>It never existed
yes it did
mass media ruined America in an irreparable way and country died because of it

Garth Brooks and George strait ruined country music, their music is utter shit

>>72101259
Old blues-y country isn't bad. It's modern country that's all about the tractors, fat chicks, and beer.

>>72105601
le wrong country generation, am i rite guys?

>>72104628
Lindi Ortega and Iris Dement are pretty good. :/

>>72105601
