When I was a kid my mother used to listen to a lot of old country music when we were driving around, the kind that told elaborate tales of revenge and romance, and I find myself searching for that style of songwriting a lot as an adult. Lankum is really good at it.

Country definitely isn’t my favorite but there’s something cool about the storytelling of old ballads.

I’m talkin about the classics. I love that spine chilling outlaw shit with lyrics about scary ghost cowboys, sleeping in a boxcar on a moving train, prison blues, repenting for your sins, and being heartbroken. From albums like The Louvin Brothers’ ā€œSatan Is Realā€ (1959), to Johnny Cash's ā€œLive At Folsom Prisonā€ (1968), to Bruce Springsteen’s ā€œNebraskaā€ (1982), I can’t get enough!

I have been doing this intermittently since I was 15 and it never fails to make me feel like the most beautiful girl in the world.
