    I would say your brother is a very rare breed with that combo. If it doesn’t positively drive change in people that is awesome and I’m all for it. I do enjoy every time one of these great country artists throws out something else that will piss off assholes though.

    Is there a massive difference in the two versions of the single? Sound pretty similar to me.

    Hallelujah is the original recording. Jubilee has horns and strings added.

    Very little, but yes.

    That’s not a track I anticipate getting a bunch of spins. Fine song, but slow and kind of plodding. Hopefully he keeps Take My Hounds to Heaven and Old Country Church as upbeat bangers.

    The Joyful Noise versions are supremely, supremely weird but I don’t know man, I fucking dig it. Big fan on the whole.

    The Hallelujah version gets a solid B with room to grow for me. My only small gripes would be that I wish Take My Hounds to Heaven was a more upbeat romper and that for an 8-track record, I’m not sure we needed two instrumentals.

    It’s a vocal triumph for Childers, though.

    I mean I think the album is awesome (particularly the jubilee version although I prefer the hallelujah purgatory). That being said, 8 tracks with two being instrumental and one being a reimagined version of an existing song leaves me kind of bummed

    I like the jubilee versions a lot. I like what he did here from a creativity standpoint, but none of these songs, outside of Angel Band, will get consistent play.

    Twitter is full of people who don’t like anything. It doesn’t matter what it is. It’s Bama and Real Madrid fans having meltdowns any given weekend.

    Gospel isn’t my thing but I like it.

    Album is fantastic. Except for the 3rd disk, but who cares.

    I hope he gets on the road and supports this album. Not likely, but one can hope

    I saw a post that said “he can’t spend his whole career singing about antler pipes and dry humping” because all artists have to evolve or they get stale. I think there’s a lot of fans who can’t or won’t evolve in their own lives so the aren’t ready for albums like this or Sturgill’s “Sound and Fury”

    Those albums still exist if anyone wants to revisit them, but today’s new stuff will be the old stuff they nostalgia for in three years.

    I personally like some of Isbell’s older songs most of all out of his catalog, and same for Childer’s etc but that’s just because I’ve had a lot of time to get used to them. I remember simpler times playing cards with my friends listening to them for the first time. But if I scrub my mind of “Sirens in the Ditch” expectations then I can experience “Reunions” for the growth and sonic experience that it is.

    I think we’re all saying the same thing and plenty of artists make bad albums, but the first week Twitter outcry is mostly unmet expectations of “more of the same, please” in my opinion.

    At the beginning of the Tyler and Sturgill arena tour when Sturgill started playing Sound and Fury He’d start making fun of all the chuds leaving the show early.

    I get it was different but Sturgill is different and all over the place. devine was dancing to a few songs off that album toward the end of my wedding reception. He may not remember though. The beers were flowing.

    When I saw them probably 25% walked out after 2 songs from Sturgill. We were able to move up to the 3rd row so I won’t complain.

    Shit I remember going to that Sturgill/Childers show in Atlanta right before the world shut down and people were streaming out after Childers' set and then even more once Sturgill hit the Sound & Fury tracks. Their fucking loss, IMO.

    I quite like the new Childers, by the way. I'm a fan of the Hallelujah version and don't really see a need for the other two versions. I think some of the rhetoric around it would be stifled if that's all he released, but whatever.
