Prong – Unconditional (1991) bass cover

Описание: Original bassist: Troy Gregory
Prove You Wrong is an album by American heavy metal band Prong, released in 1991. It is their only album with Troy Gregory on bass guitar. The album includes a cover of "(Get A) Grip (On Yourself)", originally by The Stranglers.

Prove You Wrong continued the experimentation with groove metal that began on Prong's previous album Beg to Differ, toning down much of the hardcore punk elements from their 1980s output in favor of a more experimental sound that was influenced by alternative, thrash metal, funk, progressive and industrial music.

Entertainment Weekly wrote that Prong "combines postindustrial noise, a rebellious punk mentality, and heavy-metal flourishes and, with a minimalist approach that is anything but simplistic, strips them all down to a brutal essence." Trouser Press wrote: "While the trio’s devotion to precisely lurching rhythms keeps the songs choppy—a clenched fist twitching spasmodically as it prepares to deliver a haymaker—this dull record makes that attribute part of a tentative shift toward industrial anti-musicality."

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Unconditional, soon to be damned
An individual high in demand
Institutions fill the begging hands
Clean the ashes where we used to stand
Uninvited with open arms
Complacent walls keeping out all harm

[Chorus]
I'm bound
Unconditional
Unbound
Unconditional
Unwound
Unconditional
Unconditional
Unconditional

[Verse 2]
Unconditional bad for good
Clutching glad hand misunderstood
A tight cold grip
Eager to pull
With a little luck
Fake out the rule

[Chorus]
I'm bound
Unconditional
Unbound
Unconditional
Unwound
Unconditional
Unconditional
Unconditional

[Refrain]
Unconditional
Unconditional
Unconditional

[Refrain]
Unconditional
Unconditional
Unconditional

[Chorus]
I'm bound
Unconditional
Unconditional
Unbound
Unconditional
Unconditional
Unwound
Unconditional
Unconditional
Unconditional
Unconditional
