Plus he's a guy thats beloved yet really isnt popular.

i think he's alot like dylan or neil young in that respect, he has tried and done a ton of different styles and genres, yet no matter what he does its always brilliant. but the guy has explored everything from alt country, to death/heavy metal to softer sounds just him and the acoustic guitar. Reportedly recorded in an abandoned church in upstate New York in 1999- not long before Adams ended the band- the album was neglected after Outpost. follows his muse no matter what that is, and no matter what anyone else may say. Another point: if you liked Heartbreaker, last year's debut solo album from Whiskeytown frontman Ryan Adams, then you won't be disappointed by Pneumonia, the band's third and final full-length. but part of what makes ryan adams so brilliant is he is a true artist. i'd argue thats probably harder to write a pop tune than a indie/rock tune. but the word poppy is not something i'd even say in the same breath as Ryan adams. In fact, I really think that Ryan shows an influence from PW and The Replacements.Ĭertainly im not going to argue with the OP, as exploring the dischography of ryan adams is highly recommended. He kind of reminds me of Paul Westerberg in that way. He does have some stuff that I can see being too poppy for some. I love his newest one and Heartbreaker because it's just him and an acoustic guitar. Dude, it is in your best interest to check out everything he has.Maybe it was something else that I checked out a few months ago, but whatever it was (can't remember the song or album) but it was way too poppy for me.
