First Reaction to Ian Noe - Methhead | Feels Real

[@lyndaabner5093]

I taught Ian in high school and I’m so proud of him. He’s so good at usage of imagery. If you’re interested I can explain why I talked about the copper line etc. People with this addiction will sell copper line or steal anything to continue their addiction. The town of Beattyville where Ian and I am from is dying from meth problems.

[@loosieclocker]

His songwriting is so real, so descriptive.

Love this whole album. Ian's from around my way here in Southeast Kentucky. "Letter to Madeline" and "Irene (Raving Bomb)" are on highlights on this album as well.

[@dylanhoodenpyl3510]

Letter to Madeline is a great tune

[@charlesbrown4483]

I was just watching some of this dude’s videos and saw the title of this one and decided to give it a try, never heard of Ian before now. But myself being born and raised in eastern Kentucky, I knew I was listening to a Kentucky boy as soon as he got going.

Ian Noe is the real deal :thumbsup:

"This is about as vivid as it gets when you paint pictures with words. " 😮

Ian Noe is great and looking forward to hearing more from him. He has bit of Dylan vibe. Enjoying the mixed of new artists and genres. Please can I recommend you checking out something from Sturgill Simpson new bluegrass albums. I dont mind is a standout.

[@6dogs729]

Also letter to Madeline

[@arkiemomma9832]

Hey! I started my Christmas break today and finally getting a breather to catch up on some videos. Great reaction! This whole album is top notch. I was so excited for you to give him a listen. He really knows how to paint a picture with words, especially the sad ones. Unfortunately, this is a very real look at meth addiction. You mentioned inner cities and it definitely exists there, but the rural and poor areas throughout the southern US have been riddled with meth addiction. Even in the small town of 3,000 I live in, it's prevalent. People walk the roads just like he described. They steal, beg, and will do almost anything for a fix. He mentions the guy stealing copper. It is a common material taken from construction sites and even people's homes and air conditioning units and they sell it as scrap metal. Meth is really crazy around here. As a matter of fact, the guy that lives across the street from me is called "the meth king of ****." (The town I live in) He's just writing what he has seen all around him. I love how real it is, even though it's really sad to think about. These people are someone's daughter, son, sister, brother, mother, father.... Heartbreaking....

Check out, Poor man's poison "Hey Mister"

Ian Now, Dead On the River

[@claytoncotten7699]

You should listen to Heath Sanders! He's really small and has a great voice and story telling. Check out grandpas like him, where the water runs still, or really any of his stuff!!

[@casonhelmer9409]

You should react to Zach Bryan’s new album the best song in my opinion is Quiet heavy dreams

[@lorddaniel2882]

Agreed. Amazing album and amazing song.

[@brentmight6700]

Please react to Corb Lund "S lazy H" a tough but all to real story about western civilization and how it is slowly falling apart. Another great Canadian country artist. Please please please give I a try it is right up your ally man.

[@ajgoble2850]

I’d recommend New Years Day by Charlie Robison.

[@SnapBack123]

I didn’t know if there were any other Charlie Robinson fans out there

[@allybruener5974]

It sounds like he's narrating a zombie apocalypse. Have you seen his video with Jason Momoa?

[@andycheung1596]

React to cody johnson- doubt me now

[@jacksonbaldwin5800]

React to 7 come 11 by Vincent Neil Emerson

[@cdm915011]

Kentucky not far from where Ian is from. A lot of great musicians from eastern Ky past and present. You should check out an up and coming Eastern Ky young man Tyler Booth. He is a good mix of classic and current country.

[@MrEvilsurpent]

It's so strange knowing these kinds if people on a personal level alot are good people with a major problem some are the scum of the earth. It's very sad

[@WingedSumac]

Don't judge people by 1st look. I would have guessed Echo Park, L.A.. A brit? Really?

[@benmorgan992]

I don’t believe this to be a cautionary song or a song of sorrow over a rampant problem that has cursed vulnerable people. Let’s not mince words here, this song is one of contempt! Great song though
