Single Review: Dustin Lynch "Hell Of A Night"

Following the success of "Wheres It's At," Dustin Lynch's new single "Hell Of A Night" is the second from his most recent album. The song, written by Jaron Boyer, Zach Crowell and Adam Sanders doesn't veer far from the typical fare on terrestrial radio. Sonically the song merges rock and country, relying heavily on the crunch of electric guitar. Lyrically, it hits all the pre-requisites for a Top 40 hit: trucks, back roads and a night with your lady.

"All we need is a July, hot Saturday night
A couple cans all cool and the needle on full and a countryside
Yeah, a hot little playlist, of your favorite songs
When I get you climbing up in the cab of this truck
Yeah you know it's on, know it's on"

"Hell Of A  Night" will surely do well at country radio, but Lynch has the ability to do more ("Cowboys and Angels"). There is no need for him to be following trends when he could be making his own.
