I love The Dirty South. Don't get me wrong, 'Where the Devil Don't Stay' is probably my favourite song. But Southern Rock Opera is just an epic 20 song saga that in tells the stories of the writer's lives growing up in North Alabama, as well as tying in a real cool parallel story about the rise and fall of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Just so many epic songs on this one and it just goes and goes.
Truly sets the bar for the modern rock band in my opinion. That is, the ability to put a double album worth of completely good songs. None of this single crap.
