For s**** and giggles and just before the Metal Noise Awards Season begins, we’ve put together some tenuous linked Do’s and Don’ts of the Holiday Season to provide a welcome comedic Metal break from… what you usually read while regretting eating that fifth mince pie with Salted Caramel cream, probably sat on the golden throne.
Our first introduction to the World of Prong was the opening track to their most successful album to date. 1994’s “Cleansing” was produced by Terry Date (Pantera, Limp Bizkit, Unearth) and features ex-Killing Joke members Paul Raven (RIP) on bass guitar and John Bechdel with keyboards and programming, marking their fourth studio album.
