First listen.
~Disc 1~
This first song isn't "bad" but it's below average for me. So I'm going to try and use "-1" to capture this.
Second track: I didn't like the lyrics so much, but some of the guitar parts had a nice sound.
"Somebody's Problem" has a strong rhythm and beat to it which draws me in. I feel like it has a type of tension which I enjoy and likely use in my own music.
While listening to "865", I didn't know what "865" meant and looked it up. It's an area code and the song lyrics actually repeatedly give a full phone number. Apparently it's made up for the song but happens to be the number for some business.
2: "Somebody's Problem"; "865"; "More Than My Hometown";
1: "More Surprised Than Me"; "Neon Eyes"; "Whiskey'd My Way"; "Your Bartender"; "Only Thing That's Gone" (ft. Chris Stapleton);
0: "Wasted on You"; "Warning"; "Outlaw" (ft. Ben Burgess); "Wonderin' Bout the Wind"; "Cover Me Up"; "7 Summers";
-1: "Sand in My Boots";
~Disc 2~
Listened to the first 11 tracks in the background without taking notes. It sounds more fast beat than the first disc.
--20210127--
Listened to the entire disc.
--20210131--
The two (Target) bonus tracks were released to streaming platforms along with a third bonus track. I went ahead and gave them a listen.
Songs in bold are the bonus tracks on the bonus edition.
3: "Me On Whiskey";
2: "Dangerous"; "Country A$$ Shit"; "Whatcha Think of Country Now"; "Need a Boat";
1: "Rednecks, Red Letters, Red Dirt"; "Blame It On Me"; "Livin' The Dream"; "This Side of a Dust Cloud";
0: "Still Going Down"; "Beer Don't"; "Somethin' Country"; "This Bar"; "Silverado for Sale"; "Heartless" (Wallen Album Mix); "Quittin' Time"; "Bandaid on a Bullet Hole"; "Sand in My Boots" (The Dangerous Sessions);
-1: "Livin' The Dream";
Summary:
I like the second disc more than the first disc, because it's more upbeat and lively. Speaking of two discs, I had wondered whether or not the double album should be viewed (artistically) as two albums or as one long album. I soon found an explanation online which said "recording artists often think of double albums as comprising a single piece artistically" - the explanation was followed by some exceptions. In any case, the combined runtime of both discs is a long 97 minutes without the bonus tracks. Personally, I'd be fine just listening to the second disc
