  • PRONG 21. August 2014 Stuttgart Universum
    PRONG 21. August 2014 Stuttgart Universum Zu dem Zeitpunkt, an dem PRONG im Jahr 1989 bei Epic Records unterschrieb, hatte das New York Post-Metal-Triumvirat bereits viel erreicht. Die Band, die von Gitarrist und Sänger Tommy Victor, Tontechniker im legendären Club CBGBs zusammen mit dem Club-Türsteher Mike Kirkland und Ex-Swans Schlagzeuger Ted Parsons gegründet wurde, hatte bereits zwei Indie-Veröffentlichungen: die Primitive Origins EP (1987) und Force-Fed (1988). Eine Show im alten Ritz in New York mit den New Yorker Hardcore-Legenden Cro-Mags und den deutschen Thrashern Destruction besiegelte den Deal mit Epic Records. “Der Deal mit einem Major-Label war vor allem eine Frage des Überlebens", erklärte Victor dem britischen Kerrang!- Magazin im Jahr 1990. "Wir sind keine High-School-Kids, die bei ihren Eltern leben." Überleben und wachsen war das Motto für PRONG. Das 1990er Album “Beg To Differ” wurde sofort ein Genre-Klassiker. Songs wie der epische Titeltrack oder das unglaublich disziplinierte, dynamische "Lost and Found" zeigten weiterhin, wie PRONG die Exzesse des Metal auseinander nahm und daraus einen eigenen Sound formte. "Wir haben uns nie nur als eine Metal-Band gesehen", sagte Victor. "Unsere Riffs, Texte und Ideen waren minimal, aber alles, was wir fühlten und alles, was wir sahen, war inspiriert durch das Leben im New York City der 80er Jahre. Eine Menge von dem, was ich zu sagen hatte war ziemlich reaktionär. Disneyland war noch nicht eingezogen." Im Laufe der nächsten drei Major-Label-Veröffentlichungen “Prove You Wrong” ( 1991) “Cleansing” (1994) und “Rude Awakening” (1996) , nahmen PRONG einen innovativen Kurs.

    Volume 32 • Issue 1 • WINTER 2019 2019 Annual Membership Meeting All are invited to attend our Annual Membership Meeting! Wednesday, February 27th at the Depot (611 R Ave) Doors open at 6:45 pm. Meeting begins at 7:10 pm. This free event is a wonderful opportunity for members and non-members alike to get to know more about the Friends of the Forest and our work in service to the Anacortes Community Forest Lands. We will begin with a brief annual report and elec- tions** followed by a special presentation by Dr. Michael Medler, a professor at Huxley College of the Environment at WWU. Dr. Medler is an associate professor at Western Washington University in the Environmental Studies department. He is a past president of The Association for Fire Ecology, and the founding editor of the scientific journal Fire Ecology. In the 1980s he worked on fire crews in the Pacific Northwest and fought fires across the west including the 1988 fires in Yellowstone. He received a Ph.D. from the University of Arizona in 1997, where he researched improving methods for wildland fire mapping using satellite data. Since that time he has been a wildland fire researcher who has provided information and testimony for groups ranging from the United States Congress, to local homeowners organizations. His presentation at the annual meeting is titled: “The Changing Pyrogeography of Fires in the West” The last few summers have brought about a real reckoning about the “New Normal” we are seeing with wildland fire in the American West. Climate change, building practices, and a century of fire policies have combined to leave many of our forests explosive.
