Heavy Metal legends Prong will be releasing their 8th studio album, "Carved into Stone", on April 24th through Long Branch Records and produced by Steve Evetts.  This will be their debut album with Long Branch and their first album since their last studio release "Power of the Damager" in 2007.

On March 20th Prong streamed the world premiere of the opening track entitled "Eternal Heat". If this single is any kind of reflection of what to expect on the rest of the album then, metal heads, you're in for a treat.  Loud, hard and fast, thrash metal all the way, it has a certain Anthrax feel to it.  Prong has been a part of the metal scene since 1986 and has been kicking ass ever since, influencing bands like Korn and Nine Inch Nails.  Frontman and native New Yorker, Tommy Victor recruited bassist Tony Campos of Static-X and drummer Alexei Rodriguez of Trial and 3 Inches of Blood three years ago for touring, opening up for Soulfly on two tours and later for Fear Factory and kept them on for this album and follow up tour.  Prong will be hitting the road the next couple months so be sure to check them out - I know I will!
