March 26, 201610 yr New album due out on the 15th. I just pre-ordered the vinyl. I remember reading an interview with him a while back that said he wasn't trying to make another country album, so I'm intrigued by how this one might compare to his first two. He covers Nirvana's "In Bloom" on this one and the music video is out for it. Apparently he screwed up the lyrics but released it anyway.
March 26, 201610 yr I like the new song "Brace for Impact", but I am not big on the "In Bloom" cover.
March 29, 201610 yr I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt after listening to 'In Bloom'. Hoping the new album can live up to the last two.
March 30, 201610 yr I had never heard any of his stuff before, but if "In Bloom" is any indication of his music/style, then a BIG no thank you.
March 30, 201610 yr I like most of his stuff but not a fan of this cover song. His sound has been labeled by some as a similar to Waylon Jennings.
April 2, 201610 yr Excited for this one. Metamodern and Hightop are fantastic and I've like what I've heard from this albulm so far.
April 19, 201610 yr Author He was on Colbert last night with the first single. Sounds pretty good. I didn't spring for fast shipping on the album so it's finally due here tomorrow. I'll finally get a chance to spin it soon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sz7cBnlhhG4
April 19, 201610 yr I listened to it Friday. Upon first listen, I was disappointed. But after a couple of listens, it grew on me.
October 14, 20169 yr Regarding Simpson's slight lyric change on "In Bloom"... I like it and think that it brilliantly gives the tune more meaning. If it was a mistake, then it was a happy accident.
October 18, 20169 yr Still haven't gotten around to getting a copy of this yet. Need to remedy that soon.
