Episode 49: Tommy Victor Talks New Prong Album 'State of Emergency'
Manage episode 379933054 series 2124325
Prong are an eternally underrated metal act, but their fervent underground following has fueled them since forming in NYC in 1986.
Over 13 albums and revolving lineups, frontman/guitarist Tommy Victor has unleashed his patented brand of working class angst on classic tracks like 'Prove You Wrong', 'For Dear Life', 'Whose Fist Is This Anyway', and their best-known hit, 'Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck' off 1994's 'Cleansing'.
In addition to that body of work, he pulls double duty as the guitarist for Danzig, and has also lent his talents to the likes of Rob Zombie, Ministry and Teenage Time Killers.
Prong are back with their 13th album, 'State of Emergency' (click here for my review), out now on Steamhammer SPV Recrds, and on today’s episode I talk to Tommy about the new album, from its songwriting genesis to recording on his home turf of NYC, the inspiration behind key tracks, covering Rush's 'Working Man', fatherhood, plans for touring, his tenure with Danzig, the band’s legacy and more.
So take a listen to the episode via the embed above or on your podcast platform of choice (located at the bottom of this post) and stick around afterwards where I’ll be playing the single 'Non Existence', my favorite tune off the new album.
