Most Messed Up, released on ATO in 2014, finds Dallas's Old 97's more than two decades into a career that started in 1992, when they were among the pioneers of alt-country. They'd followed that with a turn toward power pop in the 2000s, but this one leans back into loud, rowdy country rock, the sound of a band playing like the bar tab is somebody else's problem. Rhett Miller, the singer and chief songwriter, has called their style loud folk, and that's about right here.
"Longer Than You've Been Alive" is the one that stuck, and it has kept turning up on countdowns for years since.
