Prong will be releasing an album of covers titled Songs From The Black Hole. The record will is scheduled for release on March 25th in Scandinavia; 27th in Germany, Switzerland, and Australia; 30th in Europe; and 31st in the U.S. and Canada through eOne Music/SPV/Steamhammer. Bandleader Tommy Prong said of the effort:
“Prong is very excited about the upcoming release of our new record, Songs From The Black Hole, and equally excited about the artwork and packaging! Since the record explores Prong’s roots musically and geographically, this needed to be expressed visually and this was attained. With the help of our art director Mike Lopez, the theme of urban decay, desolation, insecurity and ultimate change that prevails in the music has been brought to the surface in images. Since much of Prong’s origins come from a place of abandonment, we feel our new album artwork fully reflects this sentiment. I think one can get a grip of the hard hitting, dangerous sounds inside from a glimpse of the packaging of Songs From The Black Hole. We certainly hope you enjoy this latest release, inside and out.“
