It's a question that many people ask when they turn on a country music radio station.

'You call that country??'

Whether you call it bro-country, pop-country, hick-hop or some other word I won't use here, country music has certainly swung into a certain direction. Millions call it good. Millions call it bad.

And, I suppose, it's nothing new. Country music in the 1960's went through a 'Nashville Sound' phase. In the 70's there was the 'Outlaw Movement', and as 1980 beckoned we saw (and heard) what was called 'Urban Country'. And there have been others.

Now, for those of use who can't wrap our ears around what is called 'country' these days comes a song that...well, explains how we feel.

A couple years back Aaron Lewis had a great song called 'Granddaddy's Gun' (Watch the 'Granddaddy's Gun' video here), and now Aaron is back with the lead single off his new Sinner album called 'That Ain't Country'. And believe me, on thing this song is...is country!
