Listen close to the lyrics , you might be able to relate to them. This 14 song album was Recorded and Mixed by Nate Allen and Mastered by Gus Elg. I NEVER HESITATED TROUBLE starts of this album which has quite interesting lyrics as vocals seems a bit shaky at times. The message he sent is loud and clear. Interesting song.
EXTENSION CHORDS is quite an interesting song with some cool lyrics and you could easily get into this song. The chorus is right on. I JUST CAN'T SEEM TO NOT PLAY LIVE is most likely a true character of what he expressed himself to be in real life. The lyrics are what makes you think about things. Cool song.
BABY DON'T YOU CRY is another interesting song that has off the wall lyrics as it makes you wonder where he's coming from. I find it amazing as he really pours his heart out to everyone that is listening and that says a lot.
HEART LIKE DAVID is a short song as he tells a story about David, whoever he is, and he really wants to be a lot like him.Check out this song. ALL THINGS TO ALL has a sweet punkish like feel as he plays his heart to you. This song is supercool as he spits out his lyrics as fast as ever to you. WOW! Just check it out.
I WANT IT TO BE OVER brings this sweet album to an end. He sure stands out on his own which says a lot these days and is really worth listening to. By the way, Nate is a husband, father, friend, author, baseball player and therapist and independent artists and singer. I'd like to THANK NATE for being in touch and being so cool.
