Suffer in Peace is the second studio album by American country music artist Tyler Farr, released on April 28, 2015, through Columbia Nashville.

Following the success of his 2013 debut effort Redneck Crazy, Farr reteamed with producers Jim Catino and Julian King to work on new material for his next country album, carrying traditional content that spoke about his life while telling relatable stories.

After performing at NBC's Today on the album's release date and holding a concert the next day in Manhattan's Irving Plaza, Farr was set to tour with Lee Brice in February 2016 but had to go through surgery and be put on vocal rest.

[3] He expressed wanting to move into a more traditional direction, following the critical reception of both the album's title track and "Whiskey in My Water", both released in 2013, and the positive reviews given to "A Guy Walks Into a Bar" (2014).

[7] For the album's track listing, Farr co-wrote three songs and chose the rest based on what he felt represented his life and spoke to him as an artist.

[6] It was also Farr's last album for Columbia Nashville, as in 2019 he signed to Night Train Records, a division of BBR Music Group owned by Jason Aldean.

[11] Farr discovered the song while attending a writers' round, a popular Nashville setup for songwriters to share and perform new tracks, in a bar.

Farr said that he wrote the track while on tour with the Navy in the Persian Gulf and that he wanted it to show "gratitude, respect and to honor the troops.

Jon Caramanica of The New York Times described Farr's performance as "a hatless guy working the stage with an athletic, mildly menacing prowl, singing scratched-up country songs that weren’t coy about their arena-rock ambition.

Taste of Country writer Annie Reuter praised him for performing an "energetic set" to the crowd, saying "his intensity made its way into the audience, no doubt much to the singer's appreciation.

Jewly Hight of Billboard gave the album high praise for Farr's vocal performance on tracks like "A Guy Walks Into a Bar" and "I Don't Even Want This Beer" that show both grit and grain while also revealing a bit of vulnerability in places, concluding that "[A]long with moments devoted to sentimentality and rural pride, it all adds up to one of country's richer portraits of masculinity in recent memory.

"[32] Jason Scott of One Country praised Farr's storytelling abilities for taking "typical bro-country tropes" and create tales "netted together with pain, loss, love and hope", saying that "Suffer in Peace is a fearlessly bold sample of humanity, slicing the heart open and revealing far more depth than critics could have expected.

"[35] AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine found the album's pace to be slow without any party songs, however, he lauded ballads like "Criminal" and the title track for their respective charms, saying "these would've been placed in sharper relief if there were a fast tune or two as contrast.

The magazine's writer Jon Freeman said that Farr "proved he was much more versatile than his detractors thought" he'd turned out to be, saying he explores various aspects of love effortlessly.
