Chuck Prophet describes his 'Bobby Fuller Died For Your Sins' as California Noir. The state has always represented the Golden Dream, and it's the tension between romance and reality that lurks underneath the surface in all noir films and paperbacks, and that connects these songs. Doomed love, inconsolable loneliness, rags to riches to rags again, and fast-paced violence are always on the menu on the Left Coast. Featuring 'A Bad Year for Rock and Roll', an ode to all of the great artists we lost in 2016 and a bunch of other Chuck Prophet (soon to be) classics.
Bobby Fuller Died for Your Sins is an album by recording artist and singer-songwriter Chuck Prophet. It was released on February 10, 2017, on Yep Roc Records. Chuck Prophet has described the album as "California Noir", elaborating: "the state has always represented the Golden Dream, and it's the tension between romance and reality that lurks underneath the surface in all noir films and paperbacks, and that connects these songs. Doomed love, inconsolable loneliness, rags to riches to rags again, and fast-paced violence are always on the menu on the Left Coast."
