Margo Price - That's How Rumors Get Started

From Midwest Farmer's Daughter and All American Made, I already knew Margo Price was one of the best, so I had high hopes for That's How Rumors Get Started

It is excellent, as well as being a marked turn towards rock in a British Invasion meets Americana kind of way - yet its final song, "I'd Die For You", is still one out of the box, feeling like a modern rock classic with its combination of simplicity, urgency and a soaring hook. It reminds me of "Maps". And it's far from the only terrific song here.
