New Prong album!

[xxxMidgexxx]

'Ruining Lives'
Sounds really good from the songs I've heard. Outstanding guitar picking and production.

'Turnover' and 'The Book of Change' are my current fave tracks.

That is all.

[scannest]

I like that you used the phrase "guitar picking".
That is all.

[xxxMidgexxx]

Well what should I have used? You know I'm a huge fan of that palm muting sound. Tommy does it incredibly well. Has for decades, and the rhythms expand.

When I hear the work "picking" I think of country-western guitar players. That's all I meant. You know I love me a good palm mute, unlike say that snob xxxHunterxxx.

Weezil was right. Hunter can't play that style.

i can't get into prong past cleansing. he has kind of sullied the name with all of the scabs and horrible albums they put out after cleansing.

I never said I didn't like palm muting. I just can't do it.

Really?! I never would have quite the Gerunds if I had known that.

Whatever happened to that band? I loved those guys.

I had the same thought, like maybe Tommy had started a bluegrass side project or something.

Their last worthwhile effort was Force Fed. Band was over decades ago.

Obviously you have not heard a note from 'Power of the Damager', 'Carved into Stone' or the new album.

[Gary]

I just about go as far as Cleansing,but even that is more nostalgia than anything. Any releases I heard after that I thought were terrible.

[xxxMidgexxx]

'Scorpio Rising' is a bad record and I don't like the selection and sound on "100% Live", but all three of the most recent releases are top notch and return to the 'Force Fed' more straight forward attack. I miss Mike Kirkland and Ted Parsons too, but Tommy was essentially the brainchild of the band and is one fuck of a great guitarist and a real cool guy.

It's nice having you back, xxxMidgexxx.

Yeah, it kills me some times. We had an terrific record in us to record and we just couldn't get our (collective) shit together.

That's why I had to let all of you go.

I'll give it a shot. But the band is nearly 30 years past their prime. To me it's like saying "obviously you have never heard a note from Death Magnetic.
Maybe it's decent, but at this point, what is the point?

No love for Beg to Differ on here? I haven't heard any of their subsequent records, but like that one a lot.

not a fan. you could tell they compromised what they were doing to reach a bigger audience. i thought it was extremely generic compared to the crazy shit they were doing previous.

i don't think it was really a matter of that so much as they were listening to other stuff. the guy from killing joke produced cleansing if i am not mistaken. i guess you could argue prove you wrong was a much more mainstream album since the single was trying to cash in on primus sort of. i just prong as a band who always did their own thing but they definitely got cleaner/groovier with every album.

I think that is true to an extent, but if I am being honest, I enjoy that one way more than the previous stuff I had heard by them (I think Force Fed). And they do a Chrome cover on it!

Prong played here last night (I didnt go) but saw someone locally say they are recording a covers record soon.

the last nail in the coffin for every band running on fumes.

I seriously hope not. They are doing very well now. Still a big following and consistently great batch of records. A covers album would be crud.
