We haven't been this excited about a track in a while.
Yeah, we're a little bit angst-y I'm afraid...musically anyway.\A special hello to our Alonetone friends from the grand production days...so glad to see y'all are still making music!

Once in a nightmare
I knew you then
I think we were related,
I'm not sure
maybe we were strangers.
We'd look in windows and climb
the trees that grew,
and if it'd rained outside
we'd take off our shoes.
And when I'd see you
I would…
This song was written after I had watched a documentary about Jonestown, which featured music from their choir. They were very talented and I couldn't help wondering if any of them had survived. I'd like to think that there were a couple of 'em…
I hope Brian (one of us Proods) will forgive me for posting this before we could get together to work on it further. He first played it for me a few months ago and I've been obsessively tweaking it every chance I could get.
I like to imagine…

Summertime in Boston, and this little tune is about how it goes by way too fast. Some hilarious chatter between the guys before and after they kick of a pseudo-psychedelic groove that I hope you will enjoy.
Awesome... is this one of your usual singers? The mic has a thinner, spacier country air to it that sounds real nice on her voice. Kinda gives it the illusion of being higher pitched or something, I like it.

Still having fun learning keyboard, and sticking to a determination to never write another sad song. This is just a practice ditty, but it's part of the angry phase of writing which might last a few decades. All of the noise is from the keyboard…
Nice. It's unique, though at the same time it reminds me of the early seventies post-VU New York scene. You're vocal has a Bowie-esque quality that gives the song a bit of gravity.
I'll be here if you decide to make a longer rendition.
(..also, thank you for the kind words on our silly music.)
The last couple of years have been soaked in sadness, numbness and loss, and it's not something I've tried to hide, even when making music. But I've come to realize that it's my own responsibility to lay forth the effort to find new happiness…
I sat on the toilet watching tik Tok and instagram as a man does when he's doing his business.I just hoped the knock on the door wouldn't happen till I'd finished...and a song came to me ...they come to me in some strange places…
Well the rain has come after such a lovely day yesterday so it must be time for a sad song
Heading to a lonely night
Its been nothing but a lonely day and
Iām heading to a lonely night
Where the darkness creeps and the dangers…
Two nights ago I dreamed this sad version of Help!
Today I put it down just to see what it sounds like. One mic, one take, one guitar, and one very dry voice.
Not intending to be self-deprecating, but if anyone with actual musical talent…
That something that summer brings along but we quell it, keep it wrapped up tight inside ....
I've got to ramble on
There must be something the night wants to share with me
It wakes me from my dreams when Iām not unaware
It feels…
Comments on The Proods's stuff
Heyyy, nice to hear from you all again. Excellent song! It's very robust and autumnal. One of your better tracks (if not best) I think.
š„
it can be lonely summertime alone
Oh my dear Proods! Such angst! I love this. The melancholy beach vibe is perfect.
:-) Hey Steve, I play bass too. Cool to hear your work. Likin' it.
Love the groove, and this is GREAT writing!
Good vibez
Cool old style rock vibe.
OMG! How fun to hear your wonderful music again!!! Love this one. Hope all the Proods are well in this world.
I like this....it's like a mix between the Dead Milkmen and the Monkees!
Hi Proods!
This was a good one.
~Hi Proods~
For a moment I was back in 1966. Good work!
Yes! A MONKEES song, for sure.
Interesting sounds. Cool chord shifts.
This is cool, I don't think I've heard it before. It's a bit more like the Rain Parade (Paisley Underground sound) than your other stuff.

Very Velvet Underground. Thanks:) NM
Yep :)

Super....it's what I'd expect if the other Beatles ended up visiting the Band at Big Pink!

Sorry about the trouble in olā Blighty! Nice that you can get some jam-time in before the whole mess comes crashing down.š
Wonderful!
You guys are still the best!
