i actually like a lot of country i just fucking hate the boring mainstream reactionary shit i hear everyday out in the sticks, not to mention the white guy country x rap that's become popular lately

i like the country music that’s like i got bit by a rattlesnake and a witch came down from the sky and told me to eat the bark of this tree and it would give me the strength to kill my cheating husband and then God

whenever it turned into well I'm ridin around in mah beat up car with a middle finger out and a pee bee arrrrrrr i aint never seent a horse but ima country bo-ayyy all downhill from there. or maybe when there was that video where Brad Paisley was eyefucking Andy Griffith real hard on a park bench

Yeah I hate to be the "BACK IN MY DAY!!" guy but Country is in a dire state even compared to the heyday of Carrie Underwood and I found her already intolerable

Country music, like rap, has always sucked and always used to be better. They're probably the 2 most small-c conservative art forms still around

drives me mad how they just swap out the leads with a pedal steel and the vocalist does the country voice, and everything else is exactly like any other standard pop/dance song lmao

Shit like this and the opening theme for Old Gods of Appalachia make me mad that I spent so long avoiding country music because of how bad most of the commercial stuff is. I want to hear a man play a banjo in a way that suggests he has seen the devil

do yourself a favor and check out Wovenhand and 16 Horsepower

Wovenhand is like if the Sisters of Mercy were really into Egyptology and esoteric Christianity and it's the best

I will! Was hoping to get some recs out of this

I think O' Death, especially the first album should fit the bill nicely odeath.bandcamp.com/album/head-h...

Head Home, by o'deathodeath.bandcamp.com 15 track album

You may enjoy Munly and the Lee Lewis Harlots if you like Wovenhand as well.

Nathan Bowles puts out some really great stuff if you wanna get into the existential bluegrass stuff nathanbowles.bandcamp.com/album/whole-...

Whole & Cloven, by Nathan Bowlesnathanbowles.bandcamp.com 7 track album

I suggest the devil makes three and cud eastbound. also old crow medicine shows first album (o.c.m.s) is fucking amazing

Turns out I'd already saved Paint My Face by Devil Makes Three, very much dig their vibe

long johns, boots and a belt + their self titled albums are fucking doooope

“Gospel Plow” is what brought me to modern Americana after years of eschewing anything country released since I was born

I am here to pitch to you Murder By Death because this is their EXACT energy, literally have an album about the devil waging war against a town in Mexico www.youtube.com/watch?v=G36k...

Dynamite Minewww.youtube.com YouTube video by Murder by Death - Topic

Oh yeah this is exactly the kinda shit I was hankering for

This sounds sick as hell, pun not intended

Steve Martin is just cool as shit when he plays casually on his social media.

I’m going to steal this line and speak well of you.

I just started listening to Old Gods of Appalachia, and damn that opening is so good

Yeah, if you want me to listen to country, aim for that bleak "Panthers on the Mountainside" stuff. Gotta check out some of the suggestions here, for sure.

A few standouts for me: Dynamite Mine - Murder by Death (this whole album is great too) American Wheeze - 16 Horsepower Dark Woods - Mean Mary

Country has some of the best and absolute dogshit worst music has to offer.

Yeah I don't know why this seems so uniquely true about country, but it is at least cool to dig in now after avoiding it for years and have decades of incredible stuff to uncover

SUSS rocks. Check out William Tyler as well, similar wide-open skies vibe

Yeah I was about to recommend him, I saw him live a couple months ago and that was def not ambient but his band rips.

There's a surprising amount of great shit out there in this vein. This whole album for instance www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNgN...

Earth - Land of Some Other Orderwww.youtube.com YouTube video by mustaba1234

i can recommend panopticon's more ambient moments, in between the black metal frenzy there's a real authentic slice of americana in there that really sits with you, they did a whole album of it thetruepanopticon.bandcamp.com/album/scars-...

...Scars II (the basics), by panopticonthetruepanopticon.bandcamp.com 10 track album

AN EVENING REDNESS, by AN EVENING REDNESStransylvanianrecordings.bandcamp.com 6 track album

i really dig this! also hey, if you're the same @misandr from twitter, it's been a minute

the (sometimes-unfortunately) one and only.

This is great, and it also kinda reminds me of that 1970s Rankin Bass version of The Hobbit. lol 📌

Also I don’t love Daniel Lanois as a producer but he’ll always be the guy who gave Eno slide guitar and i gotta respect it youtu.be/mZnRe6e20xE?...

Brian Eno -- Deep Blue Dayyoutu.be Kind of takes you away, doesn't it?

Also there are a lot of edge cases in the southwestern-ish dream pop realm, as you might imagine gizehrecords.bandcamp.com/album/cartog...

Cartographer / Explorer, by Ormondegizehrecords.bandcamp.com 10 track album

Ofc such things are vibey but not ambient in the sense of being total instrumental. Some Mt Eerie stuff is that way too youtu.be/FDqebGwQ4oQ?...

Deep cut Actual Folk Ambient pick for me are Padang Food Tigers padangfoodtigers.bandcamp.com/album/ready-...

Ready Country Nimbus, by Padang Food Tigerspadangfoodtigers.bandcamp.com 15 track album

damn you don't fuck around swinton these are seriously good music recs

Sounds a little bit like Chill Out by The KLF

it's one of those genres that doesn't show up enough www.youtube.com/watch?v=RD4p...
