“You don’t listen to this album. You feel it. This is not an album, it’s a spiritual experience”

“I’m sitting here listening to The Sound of Tears, and the vision just entered my head of someone taking his open hand and thrusting it against my chest. Nader’s heartfelt lyrics and haunting rhythms pierce my soul with a tender strength. I am not a musician, but there’s something so powerful and so penetrating about Nader’s music that I’m moved each time I hear it… often to tears.”

“Nader Khan is really something else! Simply put, it rocks! “

“When I first listened to the CD I thought that track # 2 was great, but then when I heard #6… I was breathless! This is a serious piece of work! On the whole, this is a unique compilation with some gems wonderfully woven in. Khan has produced a deep and reflective album that contains some classics that everyone will enjoy. The recording is excellent too! A real work from the heart, bold and endearing; this is a promising start for a rising star.”

“To me, this debut recording of spiritual songs by Nader Khan is a warm representation of what true nasheed should be – dignified, heartfelt, poetic and timeless. We experience the poet’s sincere spiritual quest for truth – and we share that journey with him through his songs. Nader Khan has taken the care to hone his vocal ability, arrange his works with creativity and selected a series of airs that hold great meaning to him personally. From the un-pretentious, yet elegant, CD design work to the serious, yet humble songs within, I am pleased to reference Nader Khan’s work as a good example of what modern-day nasheed should be: based in tradition, yet relevant for all times, and most importantly…from the heart – to the heart.”
