Panopticon's Kentucky is the best recent country\bluegrass with a side of black metal. This album is about this one time coal miners sang hymns, cooperated and took weapons to defend themselves against both blood-sucking corporates and the national guard. If there'd be the word 'based' in Merriam-Webster, it would refer to these fights and that album.
I'll have to give it a listen, thanks for the recco!
You are welcome c: Have a great journey.
As a side-note: (1) this is a one-man band, yeah, he arranged and played it all himself, but you can also see lives with other musicians invited; (2) black metal has a lot of ties with nazi circles, and Panopticon is one of the bands that explicitly does not, so it's super safe to listen and support.
