This was Prong's fourth album and is the only album with Troy Gregory who was a top choice in the many bassists that auditioned to get recruited into Metallica after Cliff Burton died in 1986 formally from Flotsam and Jetsam. At this time, Prong landed on Epic Records and they cleaned there sound up with Beg to Differ and then Prove you Wrong. I always thought they kind of sounded like hardcore punk back in the eighties which totally makes sense since the members Tommy Victor and Ted Parsons of Prong both worked at CBGB. They moved into the groove metal genre and later on got more industrial with the later releases. The thing is that you have to remember you can't get this confused that this album isn't the fastest one they've ever done but, it's the most experimental so it can go either way because I think the casual fan would dig Cleansing obviously that's the hits record or the speed album Beg to Differ which it's not even clear to me what's my favorite to this day since I started listening to them in 2004.
