The land that time forgot

"Rock'n'roll's spirit is mother's milk to Prophet, imbuing everything he touches. His old band Green On Red had stopped being roots rivals to R.E.M. long before their 1992 split, but alongside their co-leader Dan Stuart's solo trilogy embellishing his Mexican wild years (where Ambrose Bierce met Hunter Thompson), Chuck Prophet has become a Zen rock songwriting master, rolling out a series of unassuming classics. His touchstones are mostly dead wastrels, his style wry, low-slung and romantic ... Rock'n'roll romantic's latest laconic minor classic".

"Prophet is one of rock's great raconteurs. His albums are populated by characters, tall tales and true stories sung in that plain-dealing, half-spoken voice that can bring to mind Tom Petty".
