Discovered this artist from reading an article in “The Rolling Stones”. What a gifted songwriter & performer. Kudos to the whole Unit! I’m a fan!

Anxiety is the standout for me in an album flooded with huge songs. The lyrics, the songwriting is perfect -the man is a master. The wokeness to write a song like white mans world and not have it come off like lip service, and still the ability to write a love song like if we were vampires.... I can’t begin to explain how much I love this whole album.

I don’t understand all the praise. I’ve tried to like this guy but the music is awful.

I was actually enjoying the music until I came across White Man’s World... I find it tremendously off putting that Jason seems ashamed of his own race because of atrocities he, nor ANY of us committed or would commit. Just tired of hearing the same old white guilt from liberal artists....

Mr Isbell, I checked out your music because of your recent political statements. I really liked what I heard and I’m a new fan. Congratulations sir.

Perhaps the most well written album I’ve ever heard.

It’s nice to hear a little substance in this genre.

First exposure to Jason Isbell, and I have to count myself as a new fan. My appreciation for country has generally only extended to old school Willie and Johnny Cash and I’ve always felt most modern country I’ve heard to be laden with bad lyrics and musical cliche. Clearly this is an artist with his own perspective and not willing to plug in the same tired formula for writing a country song. Most importantly though, his songs are honest and carry emotion and pain. If we were vampires just wrecks me every time I listen. Actually had to dial it back to preserve my mental health. Thank you, Mr Isbell.

Wow! Gifted lyricist and musician. So glad to have learned about Jason’s music.

This album just didn’t connect with me. Perhaps it’s unfair to judge it against Southeastern or Something More Than Free. The musicianship is still top notch. I still love Jason and his style.
