Album Description
Available in:
Songs from the Black Hole is a cover album by American metal band Prong, released on March 31, 2015. According to frontman Tommy Victor, the goal of the cover album was to explore musical roots of the band and "the vast landscape that makes up the band's sound". He stated, it should visualize "the theme of urban decay, desolation, insecurity and ultimate change".

The basic tracks were recorded with Peter Funke in Trixx Studios in Berlin, Germany. The album was mixed and mastered by Chris Collier at Mission:Black Studios in Santa Clarita, California, with additional guitars also recorded there. Vocals were recorded by Collier at Lynchbox Studios also in Santa Clarita. Jason Christopher added background vocals on "Give Me the Cure". The cover artwork was created by Mike Lopez.

User Album Review
In much the same vein as SLAYER's "Undisputed Attitude", PRONG mostly salutes punk and hardcore, a large chunk of it grabbed from the 1980s. With a couple of off-the-cuff homages to SISTERS OF MERCY and Neil Young, "Songs from the Black Hole" is hardly as vicious in spirit as "Undisputed Attitude", a covers album that gives SLAYER's fans bigger appreciation for their speed. That being said, Tommy Victor, Jason Christopher and Art Cruz (along with producer Chris Collier providing some extra guitars) whip through a mostly fun batch of covers. -- Reviewed by blabbermouth.net.
