Seen them open for Pantera in 1994 for the Far Beyond Driven album Headliner was Sepultura but Max broke his leg. So, Prong Pantera played longer and Jason Newsted made a appearance. This was on my birthday 8/17
I saw Prong on this tour back in 1990 as they were the support act for Faith No More. It was only the 2nd gig I went to at the young age of 15. Both bands killed it that night.
This song kicked ass in 89 and is still fucking awesome today. Tommy Victor is still one of the coolest people I have met that did something with his music and I will never forget how he treated me like a long lost friend the day we met. rock on Tommy!!!!!!
Killer song and album!!A teacher in an alternative school i was in when i was 12 years old turned me on to these guys he said here go home and check this tape out and i was vlown away!!Yea man Prong kick ass and still do!!
I saw live in Birmingham UK back in 90/91. I hadn't even heard of them! I lost a shoe in the mosh. Found it eventually and sat on the stage while I put it back on! Bought their album the day after and listened to it endlessly. Brilliant stuff.
“Beg to Differ” has consistently remained one of my Top 10 favorite albums of all time. The fact Tommy Victor has managed to carry the ball all these years is very appreciated, as Prong is one of my all-time favorite bands. To this day, I eagerly await each new release.
Grabbed my copy of "Beg to Differ" on vinyl when it came out. Still have it. And I'm glad Prong is putting out great albums after all these years. Saw them live in Brazil in 2022 and they were in top form.
Timeless music from Mr Victor et al. Tommy is a genius, and Prong keep producing great music to this day! This CD, and Helmet's Aftertaste get most deck time in my car.
I saw Clutch open for Prong back in 90s at The Bayou in DC. Crowd was jumping off 2nd floor balcony, the mosh pit put today's to shame. Clutch singer punched an over-zealous fan in face... Crazy good times
Someone in high school gave me a recording of Prove Me Wrong on a cassette that he made. Absolutely amazing band. 🔥🔥🔥💯 Yeah I know this is a different album but that's my Prong story. Years later, I walked downstairs at my parents house and someone had left The Cleansing CD on the table and nobody claimed it so it became mine.
I met my wife and she was a huge Bon Jovi/Cinderella fan, ok that's fine and I introduced her to Beg to Differ and it changed her tastes in Metal completely.
How I truly miss having Saturday night HBB parties with bands like Prong and Corrosion of conformity playing in the background while my friends and I were literally head banging our fucking brains out killing a keg or a few 30 packs. Looking back now it was the perfect stress reliever for a bunch of young pissed off guys that we were back then.
Good to hear they still play live I have got to see them again. One of the most cerebral metal bands ever, certainly lyrically, and they are so underrated it kills me. Didn't know they had this many vids thank God for UTube and fans who care. I saw Tommy play with Danzig in 2007 great show still had his hair too. Prong owns!
Especially at that time... being a metal band in the early 90s. Now it’s basically trendy to rock Joy Division, but there was always something different and cool abt Prong. And that shirt in this video speaks to that fact.
Yep, the album cover is great...wish it would’ve been in the theatrical version of Terminator 2...the poster of the album wound up being in one of the deleted scenes
That's a weird comparison. If anything you should compare the metal of today with prong or the rap of back then to lil Wayne. It would be like me coming on here and comparing country with this, doesn't make any sense.
I got beg to differ back in 89-90 after seeing a Thrasher sub page or ad . I saw Pushead graphics and I knew it was gonna be good! It fed my soul while burnin through all the urethane and maple!
Heard this band on Radio 1 while I was driving, back c. 1989, and thought it was someone 'cheating' in the studio with speeded up tracks/tapes, couldn't believe the precision, then John Peel chimed in - it was a live session in the BBC studios. Immediately Acquired Force Fed and (when it was released later) Beg To Differ. Still think Force Fed is the better album - no compromise for the labels on that one, utterly unique. Well worth getting hold of that John Peel session on disc (vinyl, ideally) if you can find it.
Kinda weird. When I got into this particular album, I was heavily into "Streetcleaner" by Godflesh... For some reason it made sense to me to play those two albums back to back... Probably something about the machine-like sense of rhythm on this album.. Makes sense then that Ted Parsons worked a stint for Godflesh at some point... Excellent stuff... I'm glad I was born when I was and not decades earlier or worse, later :-D
One of the most important thrash metal albums from the beginning of 90's although not widely popular (best things are often reserved for connoseurs and not grabbed by the masses). Also my 1st CD (until then I had been buying vinyl). Lost and Found is my fav from this CD.
I’m so grateful I got to see them open up for Sepultura and Pantera. I was in the first few rows as the crowd was trickling in. I was flailing my arms, singing every word and head banging to get the unamused fans into it. The singer pointed at me and gave me a head nod of appreciation. It was awesome.
Just saw these cats the other night at Pop's in Sauget, Illinois on tour...they kicked ass opening for Fear Factory. The bassist sure looked like Tony Campos from Static-X---need to research. GREAT STUFF!
Head bangers ball boy this brings back memories these guys still rock were are all the metal heads gone boy the kids these days don't no what they are missing music today does really suck
