New York's alternative metal legends PRONG are back — and with their triumphant Napalm Records debut. Pummeling, punishing, and unrelenting, New York's alternative metal legends return with "New Commission," a cataclysmic thrash rager. Built upon machine-gun kicks, discordant riffage, and frontman Tommy Victor's venomous barks, this one is bound to kick pitgoers back a few reading levels once it hits the stage. With their boundary-pushing fusion of classic New York Hardcore, infectious grooves, and industrial textures, PRONG reaffirms why they are not just the model, but still the standard.
About "No Commission," Tommy states:
''This is a barn burner, banger thrasher of a song with a huge hook and a ferocious breakdown. It's got it all!''

As the band's mission statement, Prong incorporates the well of styles their legacy is built on. Blistering thrash sections, open into lush choruses on opening anthem "The Banner," before somehow pushing the intensity even further on "New Commission." "The Uprising" reintroduces the band's industrial edge, weaponizing textured synths over a pulsating two-step, before "Uncertain Truth" flexes its melodic chops, offering a transcendently sweet hook. Immediately the band dropkicks listeners in the chest with the pummeling "Fear The Sun" inciting classic New York Hardcore pit violence. Iconic vocalist and guitarist Tommy Victor's chops come out in full swing on "Proportionate Response," a smoldering incitement of retaliatory justice, before the blistering kicks of "Simulated Drowning" propel us forward. Album closer "Our Continuance" brings things to a cataclysmic close with its menacingly methodical pulse and pummelingly discordant breakdowns, tied together with a lush chorus amplified with swelling synth textures.
Mixed and mastered by Andy Sneap, the album sounds crisp and punchy, Victor's biting lyrics confrontational and infiltrating, driving listeners to contemplate complex matters like the validity of truth, self-inhibitors, and altruism. Dynamically bold, ideologically driven, and melodically infectious, Prong honors their legacy, reminding us why the band has had such a successful longevity.
