Our Take

Prepare to be taken on a wild ride with Sturgill Simpson's latest album, The Ballad of Dood & Juanita.

Simpson, known for his eclectic blend of country, rock and even psychedelic influences, delivers yet another genre-defying masterpiece that will leave you questioning what exactly you just listened to. The album kicks off with "Ol' Dood (Part I)," a foot-stomping, banjo-infused track that sets the tone for the rest of the ride.

Tracks like "Juanita" and "Shamrock" showcase Simpson's storytelling prowess, painting vivid portraits of characters and places that feel both familiar and otherworldly.

The standout track, "Sam," is a haunting ballad that will send shivers down your spine with its haunting melody and heartbreaking lyrics.

Simpson's raw, emotive vocals are on full display throughout the album, adding a layer of authenticity to each track.

Overall, The Ballad of Dood & Juanita is a triumph for Simpson, a true testament to his artistry and ability to push boundaries. So buckle up, dear reader, and prepare for a musical journey like no other. Simpson is taking us places we never knew existed, and trust us - you won't want to miss a single moment.

About the artist

Sturgill Simpson

Ah, Sturgill Simpson - the enigmatic country outlaw with a voice as smooth as Tennessee whiskey and a penchant for bending genres like they're rubber bands. Hailing from the rolling hills of Kentucky, Simpson burst onto the music scene like a runaway train, leaving a trail of broken hearts and shattered preconceptions in his wake. With a sound that blends traditional country twang with rock 'n' roll swagger and psychedelic flourishes, Simpson is a true musical chameleon, never content to rest on his laurels or play it safe. His 2014 breakthrough album, "Metamodern Sounds in Country Music," was a revelation, combining heartfelt ballads with mind-bending sonic experiments that left critics scratching their heads in awe. Since then, Simpson has continued to push the boundaries of what country music can be, releasing albums that defy easy categorization and challenge listeners to expand their horizons. His latest outing, "Sound & Fury," is a wild ride through a dystopian landscape of searing guitars, pulsating synths, and apocalyptic lyrics that paint a vivid picture of a world gone mad. But don't let Simpson's dark and brooding persona fool you - behind the outlaw facade lies a wicked sense of humour and a mischievous twinkle in his eye. Whether he's poking fun at music industry conventions or telling tall tales of his own escapades, Simpson's wit and charm shine through in every note he sings. So buckle up, dear readers, and prepare to take a journey into the wild and wonderful world of Sturgill Simpson. With his fearless creativity and devil-may-care attitude, there's no telling where he'll take us next. And really, who wants to know? Let's just sit back, crank up the volume, and enjoy the ride.
