Yeah it’s a track where the instrumental is the priority, it would impossible to play it strictly acoustically, and it’s not drowned in stereotypes, or any sort of lyrics for that matter. It’s good because it’s flat out not country. It’s electronic.
Fr when most people push the boundaries of country it’s just boring pop music but when Sturgill does it, it sounds like something you’ve never heard before and it’s awesome
Cleaning out the darkest corners of my mind Taking all my full circles, and making straight lines Been getting to the bottom of the bottom getting to me Holding up the mirror to everything I don't want to see But it ain't all flowers / Sometimes you gotta feel the thorns And when you play with the Devil you know you gonna get the horns Been dancing with demons all my life Every time I find my groove they cut in like a knife Been a sin eater since I was born Tired of feeling weighed down from carrying round all the pain that keeps me torn So I pray when I lay me down to die Grab a glass of wine and a seat to dine and go ahead and eat the whole damn pie.
This shit kicks ass. My new favorite country artist. Love the psychedelic touch to it. Very unique and brings back the steppenwolf style .... This shit goes so hard!!
I am not a mainstream country fan at all, but recently discovered this artist and album ( and Hightop) and am way into it. What else would you recommend, especially bluegrass?
@@JASmith-oy8db Sturgill did a couple of Bluegrass albums with a lot of his other songs and a couple new ones. They're called Cuttin' Grass Vol. 1 and 2. I'd recommend Keep It Between the Lines, Tennessee, and I Don't Mind.
If you ate a bunch of shrooms, and you’re in the middle of trying to get everything just right with your home audio system, don’t let this song sneak up on you in your playlist. It’s gonna fuck you up.

Before I knew the name of this song, I tried describing it to people and everyone thought I was crazy and said I was listening to some new aged poppy country. Now everyone recognizes the reality and weight of this song.
Wow, I am a new fan. Very Creative, a little Beatles white album, a little Zeppelin Houses of the Holy, with Merl Haggard on Vocals... Stunning broad sweeps of poetry, laced with swirling droning slide work, hypnotic
I was in high school in the 80s when there was an awesome underground metal and punk scene, now I am nearly 50 and the best "underground" music scene is country! With Sturgill, and Tyler Childers and Cody Jinks and Ward Davis and even Stapleton and his Steeledrivers before he hit it. I know there are a ton more, but just throwing out examples. Please add to the list because I am sure there are plenty out I haven't found and need to.
Ryan Bingham is a good one. Check out Southside of Heaven. Another BANGER is Gods Problem Child by Willie Nelson, Jamey Johnson, Tony Joe White, and Leon Russell. Well known names, but that song has no where near the recognition it deserves.

I'm wondering if they are just "underground' or has the devil made his way into the NOT SO POPULAR one's you never hear on your radio? I'm older, but I Know outlaw Country Music. an a little change has occurred with in this group of Very talented singer's. I love it, pleast dont get me Wrong..
@@danaguilar4519 the first 30 seconds, the reversed sound, pure electronic. You can’t un-strum a guitar string and get the chord played in reverse. As far as I’m concerned, it started out by declaring that it is in fact. Electronic. Not EDM, but electronic.
This is probably the best and most innovative “Country” song made in my lifetime. Nothing but love for Sturgill.

I dont usually do country but this guy is just nailing it!
Hell yeah ! This is an experience. Great job.

New fan.....what ever is happening in country music and bluegrass right now is like some kind of phycodelic outlaw revival......fucking love it!

You are the first person in history or at least that I have ever seen describe sturgill simpson as "pop"
@@peoplevsradio317 read my comment again. Don’t be an idiot.
@@angelvillarreal3648 my bad. "Poppy country" Is much better.
@@peoplevsradio317 you’re too smart for your own good.
It's more funk than pop to me. I was listening and said out loud, "this is funky!" I love it!
Trippy country! Excellent
Listing to the ending solo on Psychedelics is like stepping into another universe
Listened to this whole album on acid in a recliner 2 ft away from my record player lol
Wow, I am a new fan. Very Creative, a little Beatles white album, a little Zeppelin Houses of the Holy, with Merl Haggard on Vocals... Stunning broad sweeps of poetry, laced with swirling droning slide work, hypnotic
little Randy Travis too I find
This guy! Wow! Talent for days!
His voice is spot on Waylon
I was gonna say country metal mixed with a little hip hop
@@cjjackson984 no hip hop here. Clean your ears
This song really spoke to me as an addict. This whole album is great tbh.
Bocephus and Pink Floyd and Stevie Ray Vaughan. I love it.

This is like Led Zeppelin, Screamin Jay Hawkins and Waylon Jennings were all but in a blender.
5:00 to 6:45...little Seattle homage.
How ao

Love you boy✌
this song makes me want to run through a brick wall
Sturgill is the mfing man!
Dan from the black keys mixed with Waylon J

This track is electronic music, not country.
why not?

Lol it’s country dummy
You can’t use electricity in country music? Where are the rules that say they song can’t be both?
Hope you’re not listening to the radio :/
Are You sure Hank done It that Way
