Ugh, OP, why did you post Stevie Ray Vaughan, that's not country music, that's a humorless cokehead without an original bone in his body trying to play Albert King blues note-for-note.

Country music is like a retarded person, in that it can occasionally do something of moderate worth if it puts forth its absolute best efforts, but mostly just should not exist because there is no point to starting from such a handicap in the first place.

You are allowed to like those artists, but the Drive-by Truckers, and Jason Isbell are Americana not country. Americana is what music enthusiasts have taken to calling country music that doesn't suck. Kenny Rogers is country, Johnny Cash is Americana. There is a duality to everything in the south that typically gets lost on us northerners, but for every really lovely, derivative, pop-country star there is someone cranking out music that is all heart.

Some of my favorites are HellBound glory:

Probably, he was a menace to himself. He spent what ought to have been the height of his career in the 1970s living in a shotgun shack without heat or water, dissolving cocaine and heroin in spoonfuls of Bacardi and shooting up with it and watching Happy Days reruns all day lol

Could write nice tunes though
