PRONG To Support FEAR FACTORY On U.S. Tour

April 13, 2010

PRONG will support FEAR FACTORY on a U.S. tour in May. Joining Tommy Victor, frontman and founder of PRONG, on the trek are Tony Campos (STATIC-X) on bass, and Alexei Rodriguez (3 INCHES OF BLOOD) on drums.

In an odd and incestuous twist, Tommy, Tony, and FEAR FACTORY singer Burton C. Bell were in MINISTRY together as part of its final incarnation and both factored prominently in its last series of concerts, the "C U La Tour", and Tony has been in a band with FEAR FACTORY guitarist Dino Cazares called ASESINO since 2002, so the chemical concoction of the live shows is sure to be a powerful and caustic experience.

For the summer, Tommy will be reprising his role as the lead guitarist for DANZIG, playing a pair of festival dates in Sweden this June . Then, upon his return to the U.S., he plans to go into the studio with Tony and Alexei to work on a new album, the tenth in his catalog and the first since his 2007 release, "The Power of the Damager".
