about
Growing up together in the small blue-collar beach towns of San Diego's North County, @TheGents were in the unique position to live in a world where trouble always had a sunset backdrop. They were influenced by all forms of rock, punk, reggae, world music, and blues. As such, their music spans an eclectic mix of styles and forms. @TheGents bring their hard-working, home-made, and hand-crafted debut "@TheGents" album with songs that vary from happy yet haunting acoustic vibes, experiments in dub, and psychedelic journeys into space. @TheGents consist of Evan Hanyak (Guitar/Bass/Vocals), Green Lyle (Drums/Vocals/Keys), and Xavier Ramirez (Bass/Guitar/Vocals) and consist of equal parts cheap Mexican Lager, Salt Water, and Crowded Freeways. @TheGents have found in themselves a sanctuary producing songs with minimal equipment and maximum effort, all the while representing their hometown ethics and ideals. @TheGents are here so here are @TheGents!

This album was recorded over a period of 6 months in Oceanside, CA.

Track Name: Lifetime
She's a girl of the rarest smile, voice is full of money
High price for a single dream, sad singers and supposed husbands
A wild tonic once pursued, gave up when her hopes had tired
Years pass in loneliness, a fate she never seemed to grasp

She let me play the fool, for a moment I thought I loved her
Breathing dreams lost to the air, a lovely orchid of despair

***It's funny how a day turns into a lifetime
It's funny how a day turns into a lifetime
It's funny how a day turns into a lifetime
It's funny how a day turns into a lifetime

She's a girl of the rarest smile, voice is full of money
High price for a single dream, sad singers and supposed husbands
A wild tonic once pursued, gave up when her hopes had tired
Years pass in lonelines, a love long expired

Track Name: Sunday Jam
Woke up this morning took a walk outside
Millions of people no place to hide
Sun is shining oh so bright
As society passes by

Nothing's boring in this life
Feeling absorbed deep inside
Clouds are floating oh so high
Now I know 'cause so am I

Hearing voices laugh or cry
Never knowing or wonder why
Wish I wasn't in the sky
But the view is oh so nice
Track Name: Living Is Nice
My own memory
Is all that's left of me

My own destiny
Is all that's left for me

I can't get you out of my head tonight
I can't get you out of my head tonight
Everybody wants a friend tonight
I can't get you out of my head tonight

My own memory
Is all that's left of me

I want to be your friend and you'll be mine
I want to be your friend and you'll be mine
Everybody wants a friend tonight
I want to be your friend and you'll be mine

Living is nice
Though trying at times
Trying to define
This world of mine
Track Name: Frustration
If someone says they'll be there they'll be there right
If someone tries to call you you'll be there tonight
If anybody wants a piece of me they know where to come and find me

Here I lay in the sun
As for cares I've got none
Living for today
Tomorrow's just gonna get in the way

Music brings a smile to my face
Why'd I ever want to leave such a place
With so much love in this little city it's all I need to inspire me
She moves me with passion and beauty, this girl ain't ever gonna see

***Frustration

If someone says they'll be there they'll be there right
If someone tries to call you you'll be there tonight
If anybody wants a piece of me they know where to come and find me

'Til then I'm living on DP
Time to let the ladies come to me
Tell them girls that I want to treat them right saying come on baby you're the only one in sight
With so much love goin' round day and night there's no reason to fuss nor fight

***

So we shared a glass in my room
That don't mean I want to sing to you
'Cause you came to my house past two
That don't mean I'm gonna give it up to you
Track Name: Stellar Abyss
Stuck in isolation
Losing motivation

A vast emptiness
A stellar abyss
With my mind
With my mind

Surrounded by nothing
Surrounded by no one
With my mind
With my mind

***False fascination
No interpretation

Surrounded by nothing
Surrounded by no one
With my mind
With my mind
Track Name: Bruised Jibs
All my life I thought I knew
What to say things not to do
Through these eyes I now can see
A broken down society

***Where is the light?
What's wrong and what is right?
When you can't put up a fight
Until you see the light

For a time I chased the dream
Only to find it's not what it seems
Through these eyes I now can see
A broken down society
