Huh I never knew of Americana Christian evangelist aesthetic 😳 probably bc I never really watched a old west film with the cowboys and stuff. Thanks for telling me I always learn something new from your blog

no worries! it's not something that i would expect ppl outside of the us (or canada, we have cowboys too) to know much about, or even ppl who don't live in the midwest or the prairies. a lot of the white population of those areas is christian (usually protestant/evangelical) so there's a lot of christianity tied into 'cowboy culture'. there's christianity tied into like, everything to do with america, but it can be more prominent in country, in the music especially. it's a pretty close visual leap imo.

#there's also the neon americana to neon catholic connection too which is a slighty different visual subset #but one i am very familiar with. since i wrote a show about it #but tbh if the creative director of lsfm was any good they'd go an orville peck route with the mv. like daytona sand maybe #but i have never been impressed with any of their mvs so i am not expecting anything good #or any actual synthesis of the two themes #like i said. i do think they stumbled on the connection purely by accident #text #answers #also ppl do Not talk about there being an evangelical aesthetic bc its like. ugly. it is not very ''aesthetic''#and really only useful for inflicting psychic damage on former evangelicals
