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.
lyrics…
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…

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.

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 was born of working on a different more heavy rock/metal project...
and I had this drum track I played from my Tama kit that I got into and built on that...
Shecter Omen bass DI to Zoom L-20 where this was recorded and mixed. Mastered…
This is the old Willie Nelson song that was famously covered by Patsy Cline which, in many ways, made Willie's career happen.
Learning how to play the keys has been a slow, but steady struggle bus. The biggest challenges so far (other than…
more satire. I like the mix of the crazy analog synth (Behringer Poly D) against that aggressive guitar. The bass kind of makes this flow along (Shecter Omen direct to record, no effects). Tama drums. Gamma amp with Boss ME-25 feeding it…
This is a John Prine song.
And it's another cover that means a lot to me. John's songs have a melodic and lyrical beauty that is inimitable. This one, in particular, hit close to home after covid took him from us. I know it's silly, but it…
You've inspired me to look up the originals to all of your covers. This is one I knew upon hearing.
It's a great cover....your spin adds some real feeling that the original didn't express as well.
we've been on this planet supposedly civilised for 300 thousand years and we still keep getting it wrong ....Why? War is not the only answer it just seems to be the first to come to mind..
we keep getting it wrong…
I doubt Ai could ever come up with stuff like this.
Ai is good... I had it do some covers of my music and it was fabulous.. but this ain't Ai... and I don't think Ai could ever come up with me... and I have nothing against the stuff really but…
I recorded some backyard sounds of the melting snow flowing into the gutters, with some chickadees in the background. I layered those two field recordings and faded between them. Synths were from the Deluge's DX7 synth engine. I made an arrangement…
This is about the power that is contained in Uranium and how that power has dominated world thinking and action. It is hard to comprehend that a clump of enriched Uranium, about the size of two mens fists, can propel a 10000 ton ship through…

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.
Been too long man, had to revisit to get some Proods in.
Like the song guys, reminiscent of a 60s sound to me. nice to hear from you again.
Glad to see you're back at it! I enjoy the dreamy flow of it, the flanged/trem guitar is nice and robust.
rockin! now im going around humming this with people looking at me like im crazy.
Hey Joe! Great song. I recognize who it’s about....he would have loved this! Email me a copy of the long version, please!
Well done gang...can't wait to hear the 5 minute version.
Nice fresh sound. I love the tremolo. Been a long time, it's fun to hear a new one.
Love the minor melody lines that sneak up and surprise you... Missed hearing your lovely voices Proods! Another great one!
i may have to do a grindcore remix of this-iffenz thats cool
lol, this sounds like my house late at night. cool tune. smiles all the way

Amazing….absolutely perfect. Wow. I’m jealous of this one. 😃
I love it!
again....you're kinda a genius. and the 90's marketing campaign that kicked up such a fuss. i thought it was excellent.
dammit. It's always a treat listening to your latest tracks...it's definitely time for me to revisit the archives.
i can almost taste the linguiça! nicely done.
great work...you've captured some of Willy's charm.
Wow...another beauty.
Satire? You? This is hilarious!😃
Wow....what a well-orchestrated track. Well done!
Oh yeah....that's a nice groove.

Nice...a moody and soulful cover. Keep 'em coming.
It’s thetworegs’ Give Peace a Chance, with a little bit of Won’t Get Fooled Again sprinkled on top.👍
Woo….jazzy and cool.
Indeed…..wonderfully original, though I disagree about AI. It spawns from Satan’s bumhole.
Real pro quality!
Nice.....made me wish that my chair had a massage feature.
The syncopation is mesmerizing.

Rocking good fun...as well as informative. The guitar work is enviable.
