09.28.14 | List drifts from regular alt-country to Gothic Americana to darkfolk and everything in between. There's a lot more I could've included, but I tried to keep it short. I'm pretty partial to the Denver Sound so a lot of that seems to predominate the list. |

09.28.14 | Casualties of Cool is all you need |
Butkuiss
09.28.14 | Casualties of Cool is great but yeah nah half this list is better, especially anything David Eugene Edwards or Munly are in. |
NorthernSkylark
09.28.14 | do i start from 1 or is there a good rookie/gateway pick? |
Butkuiss
09.28.14 | 1 is a pretty good entry point, seeing as it's pretty much just Wilco anyway, but 16 Horsepower would work just as well, especially Secret South or Folklore. Tupelo are more accessible, Horsepower are a bit darker but arguably a lot more cathartic and versatile. |
NorthernSkylark
09.28.14 | i love wilco, so that sounds good |

09.28.14 | Drive-By Truckers, man! |
Xar
09.28.14 | Gr8 genre |
Jots
09.28.14 | I'm a bit of a 16 Horsepower fan, as well as Munly, so it's cool to see them getting love. Really cool genre overall, lots of folklore and fantastic storytelling |
Butkuiss
09.28.14 | They're on the list for funsies but listen to Hex and tell me there ain't country influences. |
accompliceofmydeath
09.28.14 | All I really know/listen to in this genre is Meat Puppets, but they're amazing. |
Brabiz
09.28.14 | I know 16, and it's amazing. Definitely going to check out some of these. |
Grimlin
09.28.14 | you should check out Mayhew the Traitor along with The Sterling Sisters. |
TheGreatQ
09.28.14 | Bookmarked. Listened to a little of 9 and 10 and it liked them |
ChoccyPhilly
09.28.14 | Good list. Never a fan of country but Casualties was a hugely pleasant surprise, so I may check some of these out |
Butkuiss
09.28.14 | Yeah, I didn't have Meat Puppets or Drive-By truckers on here because this list tended towards the folksier/country side of alt-country, as opposed to the country-rock/punk side. Uncle Tupelo are a mandatory intro tho so they stayed.
