Total fuck up maniac in college. Lawyer in Charlotte these days. Sent me some videos of one of his best friend’s band. Said the guy wants unbiased opinions on everything he does.
So…he asked for criticism. Well…guy really isn’t a great singer. He’s ok. The chorus’s are weak. Need a stronger hook. Guitar and verses are great. Lyrics are good. 6/10. I can possibly help your buddy on some hooky choruses.
He said. Sweet. I’ll tell him.
Googled the singer/guit player. Jason Isbell of Drive by Truckers. 4 Grammy’s.
Demonfilth needs to co-write a song with this guy. To make exitflagger lose his mind

Post it on the forums for 10x the unbiased opinions.
Just don't bring up Morgan Wallen or Jason Aldean around Isbell.

Sounds like a Train track that didn’t make the album.

Not a cover. Jason wrote all the songs on the Weathervanes album while working on the Martin Scorsese's film Killers of the Flower Moon (2023). He played the part of Bill Smith in the movie.DemonFilth2001 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 24, 2023 3:32 pm https://youtu.be/zSI0uuKGhTk
Might actually be a cover. Exitflagger will know it.

Re: Wtf. Ex college bud just reached out
IMO he's the best songwriter alive right now. DBT lost a lot when he left..listen to the song he and his wife do "If we were vampires"...song rips my heart out..

Ain't flinging tears out on the dusty ground for all my friends out on the burial ground. Can't stand the feeling getting so brought down. It's just that demon life has got me in its sway

I've got nothing bad to say about Isbell, but that song is just warmed over Allman Brothers.DemonFilth2001 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 24, 2023 3:32 pm https://youtu.be/zSI0uuKGhTk

Re: Wtf. Ex college bud just reached out
I’m guessing maybe this guy is still part fuck up. There is a really fucking low percentage that at this point in his life, Jason Isbell is asking anyone for unbiased opinions or any opinions on his music. He’s fucking loaded and successful, he’s not asking friends for other friends opinions
This reminds me of a guy who played a song from “his band” at a gig I was playing recently ….it was Addicted to that Rush by Mr Big. The actual version. People are weird man.

I reckon all songs are folk songs. I ain't never heard no horses singing any.

All of Isbell's music is essentially "muzak" (background music).....Anthrax442 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 24, 2023 5:08 pmI've got nothing bad to say about Isbell, but that song is just warmed over Allman Brothers.DemonFilth2001 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 24, 2023 3:32 pm https://youtu.be/zSI0uuKGhTk
