About This Item
FOR FANS OF PRO-PAIN, BIOHAZARD, HELMET, LIFE OF AGONY, CROWBAR, DOWN, C.O.C., HATEBREED Their fans had to wait six long years for the arrival of a new album by American metal act Prong. Not only because of the pandemic with it's countless uncertainties and upheavals but also because of a number of pleasant events in the private life of singer and guitarist Tommy Victor. But now Prong are back with a real bang Their latest offering, 'State Of Emergency', has turned into the fascinating recording we had all hoped for, with the usual irrepressible energy of a group that has been at the forefront of the metal scene since the mid-eighties, and with lots of ideas that couldn't be more typical of this band InchIt's a very 'Prong' record. I think it's totally genre-transcending and definitely ignores what's going on out there these days,Inch band founder Victor outlines the stylistic direction of the eleven songs. Commenting on his artistic approach, he says InchI like all kinds of music. This record totally reflects that because it covers lots of different angles. At the same time, 'State Of Emergency' is very guitar-oriented and a typical example of my style which consists of a blend of punk, metal, post-punk noise, some doom, blues and thrash, with some pretty straightforward vocals. All in all, there's an aggressive East Coast flair to the album. Album Tracks 1. The Descent 2. State of Emergency 3. Breaking Point 4. Non-Existence 5. Light Turns Black 6. Who Told Me 7.
