VampireFreaks.com's DeathWish recently interviewed PRONG mainman Tommy Victor. The following is an excerpt from the interview:

Q: I was surprised to hear about Prong remix album, Power Of The Damn Mixxxer - never figured Prong would be a remixable band. What did you think about the idea when it was presented?

A: "Well it wasn’t the first time that we did it, it was my idea to go ahead and do it. We did an album called Whose Mix Is This Anyways? We did it after Prove You Wrong. We figured that the record didn’t get that much attention and we decided to do a remix album. The remix for the track 'Prove You Wrong' got more attention and airplay than anything on the actual album itself.

We did another remix album called Snap Your Fingers, Break Your Back which was remixes of material off The Cleansing. It wasn’t as complete as this one is. This one has thirteen really killer mixes and every song on the album is remixed by somebody different. There is two remixes of 'The Banishment' on there; one is done by Clayton Worbeck (REVOLTING COCKS) and the other is done by Rob Caggiano (of ANTHRAX), but every song off of Power Of The Damager is represented on here which I don’t know if anyone has ever done it like that before.

I do think that Prong is a remixable band, Snap Your Fingers Snap Your Neck is more of a club kind of hit anyhow. I think we always got to keep that aspect of Prong around, Rude Awakening was kind of already a remix of Prong material built into a record already, so we didn’t need to make one for that album. Scorpio Rising sucked anyhow so I didn’t care about that. The thing is that the remixes are not there to make it more dancy or anything it propels it into a completely other direction.

One of the things I have always been concerned about with Prong is arrangements, when Glenn Danzig was talking to me about it he said 'maybe you should work a little more on the arrangement of the songs'. Which I reply with 'I can’t man, once everything is there I am honestly over it'. I noticed how Al (Jourgenson) works on his music, and he really focuses a lot on the arrangements of his material. I was really excited to hear other people’s take on the material for example, I was really impressed with Jon Clayden’s version of 'Worst Of It' because he didn’t really change the song, but rearranged it a little and the work he did with the drums. It was almost like a better version of the song from the actual album."
