PrariePusher began as an attempted leap back in time taken by a 20 year-old Max Eisenberg in 2002. Ever desperate to rekindle the long ashed embers of his "pure youth", PrariePusher was spawned to represent the fresh and destined child that Max Eisenberg belived he once was. Hence the name "Prairie Pusher" which was inspired by all the intoxicatingly surreal prairie reconstruction areas riddling the outskirts of his hometown of St. Louis MO. In summoning this ellusive entity, Max found its existance still lingering. But like the false bronze granduer of those modern prairie synthetics, vain and at the mercy of contemporary reality's airplane skydrones, buzzing highway howls, and keen ticking survailence. Max's hopefull image of a princely spirit cocked to assume its glowing glory was smitten by what he found; a grim and tired beast of tragedy.

Hopelessly confused and self conscious as a performer, PrariePusher allowed himself to be absorbed by the will of the moment. Generally this would be tinged by a overwhelming sense of failure, almost entirely to the expectations of self. For in this state of hopelessness PrariePusher's plight did captivate more than a few audiences across the USA while he toured for 2 months in 2003 as the opening act for his hero Jean-Louis Costes and The Holy Virgin Cult.

The final PrariePusher performance took place in March of 2004 at the Safari Lounge in Providence RI, however there have been Prariepusher recordings made since then including those for The Ghost Safari, an upcoming release on the Belgium label Rotkop DeathPatrol.
