“I was kind of in a weird spot when we made that record,” Simpson told Zane Lowe of Apple Music’s Beats 1. “I wasn’t sure if I wanted to do this anymore because a lot of the business sides of things, and like some heartbreak and betrayal, and just learning things that you already know … It is a dirty toxic industry. And I wanted to express a lot of that.” Sound and Fury was recorded at a motor inn in Waterford, Michigan, northwest of Detroit. “I was listening to a lot of hip-hop, and Black Sabbath, and the Cars, and old funk records and things,” he told Lowe. “We were in Detroit while we were making the record, and I was sort of writing it in real time and listening to a lot of Eminem. And I was just like, ‘Man, this guy gets to talk mad shit. How come we can’t do that?’ So I just sat down and wrote a bunch of mad shit talking songs about how fucking awesome we are. And then we recorded it.” - SS

Oh shit boys! What do we have here? A Country Music elitist? Guess what dude? You really shouldn’t compare The Sturg to Luke Bryan. Just because Sturg decided to incorporate elements of other genres into his music doesn’t make him a “hipster sellout.” It’s called expanding your horizons. It’s called not doing the same derivative shit over and over and over. God forbid a country music art expand their fucking sound! Saying Sturgill isn’t Country is like saying Between The Buried and Me aren’t Metal because they used elements of swing music.

This is the best I've heard from Sturgill!!! I've known Sturgill and he was my best friend and bandmate. I love this . He isn't just country. He can rock, funk, blues, and country bluegrass, and his own sound, which sounds and feels amazing. This is taking it to the next level. Now, I am seriously anticipating his next album. I knew he had this music inside of him. I'm so proud of him for all he has done musically and for his achievements. This time I'm proud of the music, instead of his achievements. This song is my favorite song,after only hearing it once. This next album is probably gonna take music and people to the next level
