      This album was MONUMENTAL. It was too far ahead of its time to be appreciated. The old school metal people shat all over it. To hell with those guys. This was amazing. Catchy as hell beats, awesome electronic sounds, heavy ass guitar and bass, heartfelt and intelligent lyrics. Legacy.

    Prong's best album. PERIOD. It was WAY, WAY ahead of its time. The general mindless public is never prepared for innovative pioneering. Generic metalhead simpletons put this album down, but it was more original and creative than what anyone else was doing at the time.. and the lyrics actually have real life meaning instead of just being typical murder fantasy BS. I respect this band.

  • @MillerVanDotTV
    @MillerVanDotTV Рік тому +7

    The thing that always blows me away about Prong is that there is A LOT of subtleties buried down in the “90’s guitar fuzz”. You have to have decent cans or speakers to hear it (and maybe twiddle EQ settings a bit), But it keeps their recordings interesting and a step ahead of their contemporaries. It’s details that showed they cared and had a higher degree of musicianship and appreciation than others.

    • @XuliusCaesar
      @XuliusCaesar 7 місяців тому

      That's it right there. My Dad was a sound engineer and with that we always had good audio equipment growing up, and this album sounded amazing with the EQ properly set. I remember him saying that "an album that sounds like that didn't get that way by accident"

    Another rude awakening.
    The hard life that's been our school.
    More of a cruel day's reckonings.
    Our prime time used up too soon.
    There is no kindness to waste
    Why help those crying for more?
    It spins you around, takes you for a ride.
    What is the point to even try?
    Somehow got to learn to accept the rejection.
    The tired thoughts from troubling.
    A weary mind from worrying.
    Your constant fears upon wakening.
    Your real life left in your dreams

    This song is so fucking epic. How on earth does it get even a thought of a dislike??? I always love the alternative droning guitar chords in the back ground. Well before Linken Park and Food Fighters ( and even Kings of Leon) used it to define their sound. In fact, they should give credit to this band because in part, they borrowed their guitar sound. I especially love that their lyrics are thoughtful and provoking. Not like the death and gloom idiot lyrics of Metallica and most of the other hard bands of that era.
