Have you ever felt like it was YOU who were the problem? If you haven't, then you're missing out on one of the purest forms of self loathing that humanity has to offer. This is dedicated to the fine soul who actually did find something lovable…
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…

This song is based on the account of a friend, who had a drunken fling with a stranger at a party and regretted it BEFORE she sobered up. The title is a reference to the 1986 movie River's Edge, and the character played by Danyi Deats.

"I Won't Kiss You Goodbye" may sound like another crybaby break-up song, but we wrote it after I got fired/quit from a career I'd spent too many years at. It's fun listening to the words with that in mind.
cool, the production has a kind of distant haziness that it drifts in and out of of, it's soothing but also a bit melancholy.
ha, did someone make a flub @ 3:27? "ssssshhiii*"
Another groovy tack from the Proods. Chad the Bad is the name of a terrible monster movie we shot back in ourMass Art days. It's been kicking around for too many years, so we're finally putting it out there, hoping you enjoy it more than my fellow…

I hope I don't meet Chad the Bad in a dark alley anytime, even though he sounds like a pal in the end... Love that guitar jam! So fun to hear new music from the wonderful Proods! Hope you all are well.

Heyyyy, welcome back. The sound is bright and delightful as always. I gotta say, the retro pop is apparent but never sounds like it's languishing in the past. It's a bubbly optimism that is sorely missing in garage rock.
She wakes across the ocean, and sighs when she discovers...the man who's sleeping with her looks like her last two lovers. No one wants to be a banana head.
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…
It's been a while...
This song was recorded with another verse, it ties the song together nicely but who the heck wants to listen to a 5 minute song about depressing stuff? We're really looking forward to feedback from those of you who've like…
The Proods have too many unfinished songs in the hopper...so much going on, but this is something we worked on years ago. I remixed it and finally think it might be passable.

The new album will be up in a few weeks! I just finished the vocals in this one and was pretty pleased with the unexpected results. So yeah, sneak peek.

Lay me on a slab

Describe what you see

I wrote this song earlier this week, and reached out to the wonderful Greg Connor and SL Krell here to help me with the lead, rhythm and bass guitars to give it a nice country love song feel. They killed it!!!!!! Thanks to them both for making…
Breathe
You made it home alone at last
Keep it underground and inconspicuous
Need
is a thing you can't believe
When there's no vice, there's not much left of man
The exception is the rule and there's no doubt
You've been taken in and…
Two Northumbrian Jigs for Concertina.net theme of the month for March 2015.
Lamb Skinnett is traditional Northumbrian. Wood Nunrich Fair I found in a book of tunes for Northumbrian Pipes.
Played on Anglo Concertina, Tenor Ukulele & Bass…
Your latest brought me here to walk through your musical garden...genuinely entertaining composition...and Gene Eric Mann liked you. He was my brother in music!
This is a piece I did a few years ago. It's basically an up-tempo instrumental rock thing. I was going for a bit of a "shred" vibe on this track & I nicked the idea of the slow blues ending from Ugly Kid Joe :-)
An instrumental guitar tune which combines some flashy rock "guitar hero" stuff with a strong melody. Couldn't think of a title so I just did what I always do in that situation... nick the name of an old movie from the '50s
Comments on The Proods's stuff
It’s like finding the surprising soft side of some scruffy old characters
Sounds like you guys are having fun! Good song, and yes it does remind me a little of the Monkees.
Your songs have that warm 70's slide surfer rock feeling to it! Excellent!
Hi guys! Love the song, but it makes me wish you’d write one about ME!- Pam
I expect they didn't have to look very far! Another fabulous timeless anthem, Proods.
lol, I missed this one the first time around.

Two new favs, you guys are killin it. Keep it up.
Hi JC, Fun tune. Do you still have a copy of the movie?

Another good'n. I thought I commented on this before, guess not! Very tight performance, cool bass line and lovely vocals.
Good one, I really like the mix, especially the drums and electric. Melty and retro crunchy!
What a darkly inspiring song! Your ability to combine whimsy and tragic imagery is wonderful!
love it. getting that Beatles roll around..
Capturing the early 60's English beat in their own way! The Proods !
I love it. Good energy.
*applause* The Awesome Proods.
yes, great title and a true Proods tune. Listen to that wonderful reverb sparkling layer of guitar goodness.
This is fun, it's kinda 70's Ray Davies-y... which of course I'm a sucker for.

We're looking forward to more original stuff from you.
A rare treat to hear something upbeat and fun. It makes me regret almost all of our sarcasm!
Wow! I'm a fan, bro.
Wonderfully bizarre.
Good stuff...If I had the pipes I would have given this tune a shot...real heart, man.
This is AWESOME!!! I've been waiting to use the word "Huzzah" on Alonetone, but HUZZAH to your great great cover.
This evokes a bunch of wonderful mental imagery. I especially like the simplicity of the lone piano!
Great pipes, man... well done!
You did it again, DUDE! Bravo!!!
I'm so happy that your music has made it's way across my transom.
This is a GROOVY track, man.
I'm kind of speechless...this is very very nice...I hope that doesn't sound trite.
Your latest brought me here to walk through your musical garden...genuinely entertaining composition...and Gene Eric Mann liked you. He was my brother in music!
A Masterpiece! This one gets downloaded.
There aren't enough folks out there doing what you do. Really looking forward to more...
MORE!!!!!
Fun!
Mesmerizing!! I didn't want this to end.
I love this track! It reminds me of the Monkees...and believe me, from me that is a compliment!
Now we're TALKING!!!
