Twisters: The Album

Hold on to your cowboy hats—the Twisters soundtrack is rolling into town, and it’s a doozy. At a whopping 29 tracks, the companion album of the hotly anticipated sequel to the 1996 action classic Twister is also a crash course in contemporary country music, pulling together genre heavyweights like Shania Twain alongside newcomers like Tanner Adell. Twisters: The Album opens with “Ain’t No Love in Oklahoma,” a Luke Combs track with an appropriately ominous chorus lyric: “You’ll know when it’s comin’ for ya/Ridin’ in on the wind and rain.” From Oklahoma, we head north for Miranda Lambert’s “Ain’t in Kansas Anymore,” a runaway road song with a narrator who leaves ex-lovers “torn apart like a trailer park.” Weather metaphors run rampant, like on Flatland Cavalry’s rootsy slow-burn “Touchdown” and the Conner Smith/Tucker Wetmore collaboration “Steal My Thunder.” Other highlights include the Twain/BRELAND duet “Boots Don’t,” a poppy bop with a beat that recalls the iconic stomp of “Any Man of Mine,” and Tyler Childers’ soulful ballad “Song While You’re Away.”
