Details:
A relatively recent entry onto the local scene, Nicholas Altobelli is a solid, alt-country/folk songwriter with a penchant for mid-tempo melodies and (overly) poetic lyrics that would make fans of Leonard Cohen proud. And Waiting for the Flowers to Bloom, the young man's debut full-length effort, moves well beyond the Streetcar Visions EP released earlier this year. Much more confident in both his singing and playing, Altobelli can now match the ferocity of his words with a compositional panache lacking on the EP.

The opening cut, "Dallas," is an ominous tale of coming home when home offers little respite for what ails the heart. Other cuts such as "Can't Let Go of This Pain" and "When the World Ends" continue this bleak theme.

When it' s all said and done, it's difficult not to call up Altobelli and recommend a good counselor. Yet the best country and folk always seem to come about during hard times. Perhaps Altobelli's blues are symptomatic of these tough economic days. Or perhaps he just can't get laid. In either case, Waiting for the Flowers to Bloom is well-written, well-played and adequately sung; everything a good Dylan album should be.
-Darryl Smyers (Dallas Observer)

------------------------------------------------------------

His new full-length album Waiting for the Flowers to Bloom is a meaty collection that'll surely appeal to fans of Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie and the early material of Altobelli's personal fave, Ryan Adams.

Some of the 15 tracks reflect inner struggles ("Dallas," "Take Me Down Anna Lee") and relationship woes ("Chasing Lightnin' "). Others come from the songwriter's affinity for history ("Dalton the Prophet"). And then there's the one with the unforgettable chorus: "I can't let go of this pain/For the fear of having nothing left."
-Hunter Hauk (Quick)
