New York band Prong started out with hardcore punk and crossover while adding groove and industrial elements over their career - they've been heavily influenced by Killing Joke.

Tidal, Bandcamp with a few albums (not this one sadly), RateYourMusic, Encyclopaedia Metallum

Not really my cup of tea tbh...

Hah, too groovy for you? Or was it another element?

Probably yeah

Heck, that was the first CD I ever owned. CD players just had become affordable then as well as a significant amount of noń-top 40 music had become available on CD. I was, tbh, slightly disappointed. I knew Prong's earlier stuff, that streamroller of an (Anvil?) cover, 3rd From The Sun first of all and couldn't get too warm with their new Groove Metal/NuMetal vibe. Hasn't aged too well, either IMO.

I was just spinning their latest album and find myself pleasantly surprised. Fat production like modern Exodus but still a few hints from their older stuff, also missing the industrial elements. I might post something from State of Emergency in a month or so if no one else does. That being said, I don't really touch anything nu-metal so I was a little turned off of a few that I gave a chance.
