"As someone who is more than capable of spinning me around like I'm a damn ballerina, I would say that Footloose is quite fitting. I feel a song about letting loose and having fun represents you perfectly." He hums with a small smile.

Title: Radio Song

Artist: R.E.M.

Length: 4:15

Release: 1991

Notes: I love the lyrics to this song because they are just so objectively simple and silly, obviously reinforcing the generic title of the song, Radio Song. There’s a clever play here The world is collapsing Around our ears I turned up the radio But I can't hear it

Hardy - Quit!!

I don’t quite believe in the idea of a “guilty pleasure,” because I’m at the point in my music fandom that if I like something, I like it. The closest I’ve come to it is in the beginning of 2023 when country artist / songwriter Hardy dropped his second album, The Mockingbird & The Crow. Hardy is a songwriter turned artist himself that’s responsible for Florida Georgia Line becoming popular, ultimately bringing bro-country to the world for about five years or so. In recent years, though, he’s turned to making his own music, finally getting a breakthrough with “Wait In The Truck” with Lainey Wilson in the last couple years.

I’ve listened to his debut solo album, and it was fine, albeit generic country, but Mockingbird is a different beast entirely. It’s a double album that has one half being country and the other being hard-rock. The country half of the album was pretty straightforward and generic, but it had some decent hooks and lyricism. The rock side was a little better, despite being a butt-rock album. It had the catchier and more energetic songs, but I’m not going to pretend they were great.

The Mockingbird & The Crow was a rather ambitious record, but it was also pretty bland and self-indulgent that showed Hardy wanting to have his cake and eat it, too, especially by wanting to have a more ambitious project in a new sound that still has generic country songs that will surely be played on the radio. Fast forward two years later, and we got his follow-up, entitled Quit!! This record, along with its title track, is an ode to the “haters,” specifically someone that wrote “quit” on a napkin at an open mic.

I wasn’t looking forward to it, because that song is awful, and so were the other songs that preceded this record, but I wanted to check it out so see if maybe the songs would be better in context, or if the album would be stronger as a whole, versus the lead singles. Unfortunately, “Quit” is exactly what I would do if I put this stinker out into the world for everyone to hear, because this is a really bad album, and it’s easily one of the worst of the year. Not only does this album have no idea what it wants to be, at least when it comes to its sound, hardly any of these ideas are what I’d call “good.”

As much as I was a Mockingbird & The Crow apologist, and thought that album was “okay,” this one is bad. Right off the bat, we got the title track, and this is a very obnoxious rap-rock track that he feels the need to employ here, but it’s all about how he won’t quit, despite people not liking him. He’s really obsessed with this idea, because he also talked about that a lot on the previous album.

The subject doesn’t get any better as the album goes on, as the following track “Rockstar” is a play on songs about being a rockstar, I guess, but it’s not funny and annoying. Most of the lyrics on this album, as well as the overall sound, is pretty bland, but it doesn’t get too bad. This album is mostly the kind of bad that I don’t like at all, but it’s easy to ignore. Hell, the album mainly sticks to a country-rock sound that has some decent hooks, but the album leaves a pretty sour taste in my mouth a few times.

Sure, the title track is cringy, and the song “Good Girl Phase” is kind of weird, but they’re not offensively bad. “Psycho” is the main song on here that I’m baffled Hardy wrote, recorded, and put on this album. The song is basically about how Hardy is a terrible partner, and if his girlfriend left him, he lists the crazy things he would do to make her miserable, so she should feel guilty to leave him. Despite the song clearly trying to be a joke, it’s not funny, and it just makes him look bad, like why would anyone want to be with him if he’s going to do that?

A few other songs get close to that, such as “Soul4Sale,” which has Fred Durst sounding the worst he’s ever sounded, and it’s a painfully generic song about selling your soul to be popular or something. A couple songs are actually okay, including the couple songs about his wife, “WHYBMWL,” and “Six Feet Under,” but they’re also super bland, both musically and lyrically, they’re just not outwardly bad. They’re at least more sentimental, and they have more defined hooks and structures, versus being loud and obnoxious.

Loud and obnoxious are the best two descriptors of this album, especially at its worst. Hardy isn’t a very good singer (or lyricist, for that matter), and it shows when he has to do anything that’s out of his limited range, so a lot of these hooks are awful, or very forgettable. Now at its best, it’s generic country-rock, but also very forgettable. Quit has a few of the worst songs of the year, and I still would throw this on a worst of list, but it didn’t piss me off as much as a few other albums did throughout the year. It’s bad, but it’s the kind of bad that you’ll forget about in a day or two, instead of letting it eat you alive as some bad albums can do.

Distorted visions of my demons My reflection has no meaning

I whisper secrets to my mirror, And in the silence, I see you clearer

Chained to this place, stay here with me A silent plea to set you free

You see my shadow in the hallways I've been lost here in this dark haze

"I do not know much about you my friend, but from what I have heard you have a very calm yearning of freedom. While the lyrics may not connect with you as much I believe you would like the low energy melody of this band."
