The Outrage Outweighs The Means
The Prudish Few
Because of the way life leans, What’s the weight of all of the denied dreams? When you are not heard or seen, When does the outrage outweigh the means? The torches and battle scenes Make it clear the outrage outweighs the means The sickening impunity Makes the outrage outweigh the means for me Because of this gang of fiends, And because the cruelty’s become routine, And babies caged in our names, I can see a white house gone up in flames
3:24

The debut album from Nashville rock stalwarts; Todd Kemp, Mike Shepherd and Jay Leo Phillips. Chamber Music in the form of Rock Music. Politically charged and leaning into the zeitgest, rather than escaping it.

Thank you most importantly to Jeremy Ferguson, whose role in making this album went so far beyond just recording us doing our thing. He truly felt like a fourth member of the band throughout the process, and his creativity, skill, and graciousness are beautiful things to behold.

Thanks also to Matt Glassmeyer, Brad Kemp, and Jim Lewis, who listened to these songs in such focused and generous ways, and who provided much-needed and totally-employed advice.
