Album Info

Release Date: 1999

Label: Not On Label

Independent singer-songwriter

Following the success of his first CD, Make It Hum, Geyer returns with You Never Get What You Want, a 12-song train wreck between pop hooks and twang-laden rock.

The new record is a more emotionally diverse record than previous releases, mixing powerful anthemic pop like "Pretty Little Marathon" and "Follow Me Down" with more moodier shuffles like "Astrology Says" and "Big Enough Heart".

Also, Geyer has made room this time out for a few of his more humorous tunes, including "Sensitive Guy", a sarcastic ode to the evolved 90's man, a love song called "I Hate You", and "Radio Friendly", a crass slam at current popular music standards.
