Billboard seems to be making a living out of stating the obvious. I use Mediabase in my job, and you can hear rock, Americana, roots and everything else increasingly in the charts. Just saw the Brothers Osborne tonight, love these guys and their sound doesn't need a Billboard buzzword, customers "get it". And love it. www.mediabase.com/mmrweb/allaboutcountry/Charts.asp?format=C1RLMAO "That's an outsize performance for Americana, and represents more in sales than any other genre outside of rock (for which all four also qualify)"

I clicked the link and then listened to Bon Iver's song "33" off their new album. Not what I expected as "Americana". Radioheadicana?
I can't say I could "taste the dirt through (my) ears" in this music, but that's a clever phrase for Americana.

If that's Americana, God help us...
