COMMUNITY REVIEWS

***** submitted by shannonwait on June 16, 2019, 8:06am Great songwriting and the most iconic harmonies in country.

Old Timey Fire & Brimstone Country Preachin' submitted by Meginator on July 11, 2021, 12:27pm Content Note: One of these songs depicts the graphic murder of a woman.

This is old-school fire-and-brimstone country music, early enough that it takes most of its cues from bluegrass while moving slightly into a new musical paradigm. The Louvin Brothers have amazing vocal chemistry and a lot of musical skill, and the lyrics range from typical benign love songs to hilariously earnest religious fervor. It’s easy to tell how the duo had such a large impact on country music going forward, but the lyrical content definitely won’t be for everybody.
