Miles Away is a very simple guitar riff and lyrics that match, but it's a song that came from the heart of one of the band's members. It's kind of a tune about a newly married couple...like most Prood songs it was recorded after one or two rehearsals…
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 gave this a day before I decided to comment...this song is wonderfully disturbing. Your lyrics are simple but clever and they make me want to pick up the guitar and get to work!

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…

Here's the first of several versions that you'll see from a collaboration across the inter webs started by Greg Connor. He got us together on the Zoom and then look what happened!!!! Music and lyrics collaborated with the talents of Steve Krell…
Looks like I'm a little bit drunk, but hey, I don't care LOL... It's been a while since I've uploaded something, but no excuse now during lockdown time :-) I still don't have proper recording facilities and I'm forever trying to find my way…
Written for the April 2020 RPM mini-challenge. I hoped for an EP and ended up with a single song. The song is largely recorded on a T25 mic I built for Brian of A Beautiful Scene as a means to test the mic. It's pretty solid if you ask me…
Strange Times is an international collaboration between Roger Harris & myself. Roger initiated the idea with the first verse and chorus along with a chord progression. I added the last verse and took some liberty in producing this version…
Um - yeah. There are a few naughty words - many apologies.
This is a bonus track -- unless I can't think of a legitimate track 10. If so, then this is both the highlight and crowning achievement of the album, and I totally intended it to be.
As a child my mother once climbed up a tree. From there she shouted to her twin brother "It is the roof of heaven showing from here"
Taivaan katto means the roof of heaven in English
Heres one I found on my Hard drive an experiment with Igor 2016 part of a project called mmmm I believe (Hi Igor its been a while...) anyway hope you enjoy

I can see you on your rocking horse now
The one that turned around and kicked you in the teeth
He thought…
We're bored in lockdown again. I call out for collaboration and Joe Whibley pops out of the aether. And this is what happened. Joe did a fucking fantastic job with most of the work (playing all the instruments and a vocal), I just stuck in some…
Are you scared to wake up?
In the same place you laid your head.
You scribble on your make up,
To pretend your face's not dead.
And I know,
Yes I know.
The opposition shows.
Are you afraid to take up?
Memoirs of your past.
You hang…
so.... i first wrote & recorded this song in 2015, and then did a new version in 2017, and here's my updated 2020 version...
still not totally happy with it but... here we are anyway lol...

Very nice! I don't think I've heard this one before. Great melodies as usual.
Really enjoyed This!! Ya'll are awesome!!
This makes me want to join a death cult just to get into their glee club.
I've got no monopoly on clever... Especially like, "Is there nothing you believe in that could not withstand a scrutinous review?"
I gave this a day before I decided to comment...this song is wonderfully disturbing. Your lyrics are simple but clever and they make me want to pick up the guitar and get to work!
What an obvious subject for a fun song so many of us overlooked. Please include the lyric in your "about" section. I want to hear all the words.
Hi Joe and Matt....good song, you've been talking about Jonestown for almost a year! Glad you could find art within the trauma!
So original and different. Like the melody guys. Excellent song!
Very creative idea for a song. I think they are all singing from the heavens now.
Now here's a cult Proods classic to be sure! Who knew Jonestown had a choir. Your creativity is awesome as always!
Creepy and funny. Retro feel to it. Love the vocals and guitar.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm jealous of that guitar sound. I mean How ? Wonderful.
Drinking rum on an imagined twisted Disney themed ride. nice !
Very clever and funny! Nice one guys.
Having fun while you make music is what it's all about guys! Love the vocal mix, simple tune but great message and very catchy too!
