    Chuck Prophet: world-class wordsmith, killer guitar player. His albums get better with each listen. Bobby Fuller Died For Your Sins might be his best.

    Prophet mines Fuller’s energy in the pounding title track, which features the refrain, “I hear the record crackle/ The needle skips and jumps/ Bobby Fuller died for your sins.” Prophet described “Bad Year for Rock and Roll,” another album highlight, in an essay for Talkhouse as “an anthem for anyone who’s ever had a bad year and battles late-night bouts of loss of faith.”

    Ultimately, every track on this masterfully sculpted set courses with life-affirming pop-rock passion.
