Prick

about this album

Prick is the eponymous debut album by American industrial rock band, Prick, fronted by Kevin McMahon. It was released on January 25, 1995 via Nothing Records, Nine Inch Nails founder Trent Reznor's vanity label and a subdivision of Interscope Records. The album was produced by Warne Livesey and Reznor, who also engineered on four tracks. The album sold 66,000 copies. The tracks "Communiqué"/"Crack" and "Animal" were released as singles. "Animal" became a minor alternative radio hit and was accompanied by a music video. A follow-up album, The Wreckard, was released independently in 2002 after it was rejected by Interscope Records due to creative differences and the band was unsigned from the label. In 2017, the album was reissued on vinyl through Trent Reznor's Null Corporation label and made available for digital download via the ITunes Store. In 1992, Kevin McMahon started an unnamed project after his previous new wave band Lucky Pierre disbanded. He recorded four demo songs with Trent Reznor, a longtime friend and a former Lucky Pierre member who founded Nine Inch Nails. These songs were recorded in Reznor's Le Pig studio and in New Orleans. The title track from Lucky Pierre's 1988 Communiqué EP, which featured Reznor on backing vocals, was also re-recorded as a demo. After Reznor fully committed himself to the recording of Nine Inch Nails' second studio album, The Downward Spiral, McMahon went to England and collaborated with British producer Warne Livesey to finish the
