It was across genres, too, from Steve Earle to NOFX.

Man, Steve Earle went hard on it.

A couple of the songs on "The Revolution Starts Now" haven't held up over the years, but most are still amazing. "The Seeker" is eternal.

Not saying he didn't always, but he really started massively pushing the boundaries of his sound starting with Transcendental Blues. I'd rather artists take risks and have a few failures than fall into a safe rut and churn out more of the same.
