Mainly aimed at the American posters here, can be from any era but preferably stuff I probably haven't heard of. Not shit like Rodney Atkins but good songs about trucks and Jesus are cool.

Depending on how country you're looking for, some of his stuff might be too folksy for your liking, but . . . John Prine fucking rules.

Hank Williams Jr is kind of an idiot outside of song-making, but I like a few of his older songs, late 70's early 80's. Did some good songs about cocaine/alcohol abuse and lost love and country itself, standard subjects of country music. Also according to Wikipedia he's capable of playing 11 different musical instruments, damn.

Honestly I hate pretty much 100% of modern "radio country". I can't even listen to it at all. That's not me trying to be elitist or anything, I just can't stand that shit. :glare:
