I love the lyrics to these two songs and.
The nostalgic arena-rocker Feel That Again finds the Macon, Ga., native pining for "wild and free'' sounds and songs you "wish would never end.'' On his fifth album, Night Train (*** out of four out Tuesday), he provides plenty of the former but none of the latter.Īldean is considered progressive by contemporary country standards for embracing rap elements ( 1994 and The Only Way I Know, with Eric Church and Luke Bryan), amping up the wailing rock guitars and exploring the occasional edgy theme ( Black Tears, a sad, dark tale referencing a stripper and drugs).īut just as often he works within a succinct, hook-laden, radio-approved style and wrestles with the timeless themes of small-town life, the desire to escape and the greater desire to return ( Drink One for Me).įirst single Take a Little Ride is the lustiest yet most generic of the tunes, something about a truck, a gal, her pink toes on the dash and whatnot. In my opinion, the title track Night Train is the best song on the album closely followed by Staring at the Sun.
