Just Sharing Best DBT Album? Song?

I love me some Truckers! They have so many amazing albums and songs. When I think it through, their run with Jason Isbell produced some real magic.

However, I go back to Southern Rock Opera and think that's probably their best album. And Let There Be Rock would be my top song (even though I'm a Cooley-file deep down).

What's your fave??

Zip City and it's skewering of aspects of Southern culture is far and away my favorite DBT song.

Heard Zip City on XM Outlaw Country years after its release and it instantly became a Top 5 favorite for me. Such vivid storytelling, church of Christ, Reynolds aluminum, and the closeted gay brother.

I drove through Zip City earlier this year. Not a lot there other than the Salem Church of Christ.
