Reviews

Rated 4/10

The lyrics are actuallly quite clever in service of aggressively generic themes. In fact, the lyrics are to clever for the stories he's singing about. I Got You is a great example. Though it hits like a brick when you dig in on the title track. I hate the instrumentation. The Streets Of Bakersfield is underwhelming.

Rated 2/10

In which Dwight advocates killing unfaithful women. Maybe they'd have more respect if you weren't such a murderous shithead, Dwight.

Rated 2/10

First country album on my list and the first 1 star review, just not the music for me.

Rated 4/10
