for the nerd in all of us
author:
the unlikely voice of a dispossessed generation, crooning over catchy, memorable rhythms & solid musical arrangements that hit & stick to all sorts of unexpected places... the gut, the heart, the roof of your mouth, the bottom of your soul, the tookus of your mind... anthems for the thinking feeling wounded children of the 80s & 90s who
refuse to give up, & yet timeless & haunting, reaching its painfully self-aware tentacles into the darkness of future generations to come... with a healthy respect & a nod to all that came before. in short? the perfect blend of timelessness, nowness, then-ness, and righteous accessibility... with a wry sense of humor... all leaked out in one of the most singularly warm smoothe mystical
memorable lonely-boy voices i've heard in a long while... an album that will comfort you again & again with every successive listen.
lullabies, threnodies, gentle revolutions, comical modpodges of idiosyncratic soundscapes, & so much more... 'texas' is not something to listen to once & tuck away on a shelf, but something to be experienced & absorbed time & again, & to pass along to as many people as possible. if you listen closely, you just might hear a whisper of the brilliant underappreciated painfully-perceptive nerd buried deep within your own skin. the nerd who always wanted to sing, & now has found his voice. through the matthew show.
