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.

I love Wilsun's 2020 RPM album "Departure", so I decided to cover it (yes, the whole album), but with a twist. I found some bits to be repetitive, so I removed them. I wrote down the lyrics and chords, and promptly ignored the originals, making…

She's starting to write her own stuff (proud!) but just to get her in the studio for the first time, here is a cover of a song by Vance Joy.
DEEPER
Every day I sink a little deeper
Two steps up. Three steps back.
I'd rather be dead than be a sleeper
I'm not coming back...

It’s amazing. I was on my way to a play tonight and Cindy Loveless came on my IPod and I wondered when I’m going to here more of your work. My only wish is that you’d let us here some of the rough cut stuff.
Your wonderful music has a depth that leaves me in awe. You've created a world of imagery that is genuinely unique...non-duplicable! I'll always come back to this music.
Hey Brett I made a special trip back to the land of Alonetone for the sole purpose of hearing this song. Sorry as hell that I didn't check in sooner, but I have to once again praise your imaginative work! So freaking original...I envy your creativity!
After several bottles of wine, thetworegs and I were able to coerce Elvis and a few others down in regs basement to come out for a long overdue collab. After all, isn't October collab month?
Thanks again for the great vox!!
This song is the result of exchanging "One Line Zingers" with my friend Tom last Saturday while playing a little music.
He challenged me to write a song about him and he would do the same at my expense.
The funiest song wins.

I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…
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.

Amazing!!!! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! Not enough caps, nor enough exclamation points!
Such a catchy groove!

Too good...I like this song.
I love this! It's amazing!

Great music! (and thanks for the support).
So much to catch up on....you’re none-stop.
If Wylde Stallions was real....
Clean, Real nice!
I purchase the songs you sing.
Well done...again.
great vocals....amazing pipes you've got there!
Your musical output is commendable....I've been away a couple weeks and I come back to an album worth of new material!
