Prong – Rude Awakening – Vinyl LP

High Quality, Insert, Coloured Vinyl, Limited Edition

Prong’s distinctive industrial metal sound influenced other bands such as Korn and Nine Inch Nails. Former New York club CBGB’s soundman Tommy Victor founded Prong in 1987 as his outlet for sonic fury. Having their roots in the thrash metal and hardcore scenes, Prong carved a niche for themselves – groovy, angry, massive; just perfect mosh music. The trio wrecked stages and impressed audiences all over the world.

Rude Awakening is Prong’s fifth album. Prong continued to refine their piercing approach to metal, while simultaneously expanding their sonic vocabulary. Throughout the record, they continue to mix in industrial rhythms and effects – there are samples scattered all over the album – but the key to the success of Rude Awakening is the precise, drilling effect of the group’s jackhammer riffs.

Rude Awakening is available as a limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on crystal clear vinyl and includes an insert.
