PRONG – Songs From The Black Hole 2015

Back to the U.S. power trio and their "Songs From The Black Hole", a new album full of undeniable cover versions originally recorded by the mostly eighties indie, punk, hardcore, original goth, and rock artists.

"The Bars" (Black Flag) and "Seeing Red" (Killing Joke) are right up there with the sound of Prong. Especially the latter kicks like a mule to the head. Jaz Coleman is Victor's biggest vocal influence and Geordie Walker also a huge influence on his guitar playing. "Don't Want To Know If You Are Lonely" (HÜSKER DÜ), "Give Me The Cure" (Fugazi), Banned In D.C. (Bad Brains), are all hardcore acts that we expected to find on the cover album by Prong. "Cortez The Killer" (Neil Young) on the other hand, something different and therefore darn interesting. Melancholia kicks in after the first note and it would have been fun to have more of these unexpected numbers on the record.

01. Doomsday (DISCHARGE)
02. Vision Thing (SISTERS OF MERCY)
03. Goofy's Concern (BUTTHOLE SURFERS)
04. Kids Of The Black Hole (ADOLESCENTS)
05. Bars (BLACK FLAG)
06. Seeing Red (KILLING JOKE)
07. Don't Want To Know If You Are Lonely (HÜSKER DÜ)
08. Give Me The Cure (FUGAZI)
09. Banned in D.C. (BAD BRAINS)
10. Cortez The Killer (NEIL YOUNG)

Line Up:
Tommy Victor - Vocals, Guitar (Danzig, ex-Ministry, ex-Tapeworm)
Jason Christopher - Bass (Sebastian Bach, ex-Onceover)
Arturo "Art" Cruz - Drums (ex-Winds of Plague, ex-Enthral, ex-Azusa)
