weird how so many people on CE say that yet nearly every great songwriter has been influenced by country

everyone from legends like Dylan and the Stones, to all kinds of punk and post-punk and alt-rock, to modern legends like Neko Case have big country influences

It's true. Guarantee you 99% of people who say it don't ever actually sit down and listen to it to create an informed opinion, just parrot others.

I don't mind country but one time I had to drive from Austin to Dallas and by the time I arrived I was more than ready to argue that county suffers from a lack of variety.

Modern country that you hear on the radio does suck though, which is why people say all country music sucks because they don't know any better. There's a few exceptions, like this is one of my favorite country songs from the past 10 years.

And you're wrong, obviously you've never actually listened to any country song and you're just parroting what you've seen online or heard someone else say

I don't care about how much it has influenced music though, it sounds bad. That's all I care about. If it has influenced anything, it was for the worse.

Farts have influenced much of culture as well (comedy in particular), that doesn't mean I have to appreciate people farting in my presence

What makes country sound bad?
Does this sound bad?

Or... does this sound bad?

Or maybe it's this that sounds bad?

I mean, they're all part of that genre called country, although there are many subgenres within that, such as cowboy, bluegrass, Bakersfield, and country rock, just to name the examples I provided. So to call all of country (along with its subgenres) bad is rather judgemental and ignorant, to say the least.

Nah you're right, I actually forget that country other than pop radio trash exists sometimes. The first one you posted is actually pretty good and the second isn't bad either. I also like I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry by Hank Williams

I guess I should say the country music that actually gets made today is bad.

From what I've heard, that's true when it comes to the deplorable dross played on radio.
But I don't listen to radio anymore. I prefer exploring RYM to see what's highly rated for each subgenre and year and start from there.

There's more than one or two good country songs.

If country music sucked or is bad like according to some users, it wouldn't be as popular or produce the hundreds of number 1 songs like it has.

I guess it's cool to hate on something that is popular.
