“Codeine” by Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 2013. It was first released in 2011 on the album Here We Rest. Its best result is #743 on the WXPN 885 Greatest Songs of the New Millennium (2013).
Jason Isbell wrote "Codeine" on his own, words and music, for Here We Rest, the record he and the 400 Unit put out on April 12, 2011. It was his third studio album and the second to go out under the Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit banner.
The album around it drew mostly warm notices. AllMusic's Andrew Leahey heard a gallery of the kind of people who fill hard-up Southern towns, set to folk, country and barroom rock and roll, bittersweet but stubborn. The Boston Phoenix reckoned Isbell had settled into an easy post-Truckers stride, his voice smoother and older-sounding; the Independent on Sunday was less sold, blaming a slight voice and band. In 2019 the record came back remixed by Dave Cobb and remastered by Pete Lyman.
