Countrier Than Thou
So that bitter tone you hear in some of his popular tunes, such as "[Expletive] This Town," isn't how he really feels. He has other songs that state his mind, such as "Countrier Than Thou," which calls out the Shania Twain haters.
"Even though I love Shania, I've done plenty of eye-rolling at big-brand country music, which I think is largely an uncreative, crudely manipulative, sinister pile of junk," he said. Ever the contrarian, though, Fulks wonders "What kind of world would it be if we let a small band of college-educated ... [ideologues] say what some blue-collar worker in Cedar Rapids should or shouldn't be enjoying?"
