Country isnt actually bad at all. The only thing is that it lacks a key ingredient found in other genres. See, in rap, artists drop various beats, in different genres of rock, the riffs, tempo, tune and pitch all change, in classical every piece is unique unto itself, revealing a silent story, but in country, you often simply hear the same tempo, same tune, and same theme but with different words. If someone where to merely come along and add a crap load of variance to country, it would appeal to many more people. I'm also sure that all of you know what I'm talking about. A persons dog can die only so many times, and they can only loose so many girlfriends. In addition, no one cares about the farm anymore, agriculture is important, but technology makes it so that there really aren't cowboys anymore. A few musicians change up up, like that one guy that's a cowboy of the ocean, but its all the same. So I'm just saying, GET SOME GODDAMN VARIANCE INTO THIS GENRE!!!!!

I think one of the main things that turns me away from country are the lyrics. They all seem to be about going to a bar, drinking, meeting ladies, losing ladies and drinking because of it, their car, or something like that. Most of them really lack depth, but there are occasional good songs.

There are also some good variations on the genre. Folk uses similar instruments [acoustic guitars, violins, et cetera], then there is folk rock, and alt-country is pretty awesome. I would recommend looking into it.
