Orville Peck - Stampede

[FetchFugly]

The full album was released this week and there is plenty I like here. Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting) is a complete horror obviously. Midnight Ride doesn't stick out as much as I thought because the whole thing is a bit of a pick and mix.

Back At Your Door with Debbii Dawson has a bit of a Nancy-Lee feel. Papa Was a Rodeo is lovely, and I like Where Are We Now? as well, though Orville's role feels like a supporting one to Mickey Guyton's lead. Margo Price sounds sugar sweet on the salty You're an Asshole...

I do miss some of the Southern gloom of his early stuff but a duets album is probably not the place. I can't begrudge a big gay karaoke moment on Rhinestone Cowboy either.

Haven't listened to the whole thing yet, but I gave a quick listen to "Papa Was A Rodeo" as its an all-time favourite of mine and I wasn't keen on their interpretation...

It’s no bronco but then what is

I’m not a huge fan of his voice personally but that song with Noah Cyrus is AMAZING

I hadn't really paid any attention to his music before the Kylie duet, but I'm really enjoying this album. "Back at Your Door" is the highlight- it IS very Nancy and Lee (one of my all time favourite albums), thank you @FetchFugly as that comment made me give the album a play.

I might go back and investigate the rest now.

BRONCO and PONY are both excellent but Bronco is my LP of CHOICE

He should just take more of his clothes off for the next album campaign.

New song:



I like, though the way he sings 'permanently' is maybe a little odd.
