Our Take

Yeehaw, saddle up cowboys and cowgirls, because Sturgill Simpson is back with his latest offering, "Ballad Of Dood & Juanita". This album takes listeners on a wild ride through the untamed West, with Simpson's signature twang and storytelling prowess leading the way.

From the first track, "Ol' Dood (Part I)", where Simpson's gravelly voice sets the tone for the epic tale to come, to the hauntingly beautiful "Juanita", where we see a softer, more vulnerable side of the outlaw protagonist, this album is a cinematic journey through love, loss, and redemption.

Simpson's songwriting shines brightly on tracks like "Sam", where he paints a vivid picture of a gunslinger torn between duty and love, and "Go in Peace", a soulful ballad that will have you reaching for the tissues.

But it's not just Simpson's lyrics that pack a punch - the instrumentals on this album are top-notch, with twangy guitars, mournful fiddles, and stomping drums creating a rich tapestry of sound that perfectly complements the storytelling.

Overall, "Ballad Of Dood & Juanita" is a triumph for Sturgill Simpson, showcasing his talents as a musician, storyteller, and all-around cowboy troubadour. So grab your spurs, pour yourself a whiskey, and let Sturgill Simpson take you on a ride you won't soon forget. Giddy up!

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.
