Jona Weinhofen on why PROM QUEEN broke up

[@ReneZZ]

I remember Ed Butcher being my favourite vocalist for years. Music For The Recently Deceased was such a beautiful release and I will never forget it 🖤

[@caotico47]

I Agree

[@paulathienides1376]

Agreed. His vocals live are still probably the best i’ve seen. Up there with sam carter

[@dabbingfam6429]

Ed butcher was the best for them

[@vipset87]

Fucking FACTS

[@vipset87]

​@@dabbingfam6429 you could put Ed in any deathcore band and it would shine

[@ZeroXIV]

Music for the Recently Deceased was such an insane album to me growing up, I find myself going back and giving it a listen to this day

[@chrissharp535]

Definitely is well worth the twenty dollars it runs for on iTunes…soon as say goodbye come on it’s over for me

[@-GRAVESITE-]

I credit Australia with bringing a new wave of metalcore/post-hardcore that started in the late 2000s/2010s

[@realDeor]

IKTPQ and Parkway where so OG back in the 2000's. staple to the scene

[@TricksBe4Chicks]

They changed metal here in Australia

[@ChichiNaka]

the Ed Butcher era of Prom Queen is unmatched for me, hearing Jonah explain the reality of 2008 australian hardcore band life it's completely understandable why he bounced

[@zvkryblkhrt8915]

I remember discovering IKTPQ back in HS. Their vocalist ED Butcher definitely had a huge influence on my vocals.

[@sunnyredpanda6899]

IKTPQ will be forever one of my favourite bands, went crazy one time and followed there tour around the UK, seen them consecutively over like 4 nights

[@kvltizt]

MySpace was how I found IKTPQ all the way over here in Murrica. I miss them a lot.

[@CHRISandSHAN]

Best years of my childhood was catching IKTPQ at HQ Leederville

[@michaellong79]

Man I remember first meeting these guys when they came to Perth and my mates band animefire played with them and then becoming mates with JJ, was a crazy time 2008/2010 for Aussie metal

[@kennybales3780]

Loved Crafter IKTPQ, loved IKTPQ in general, dude seems humble as hell. Legend.

[@gloomykasumi8580]

Beloved is still one of the greatest metalcore masterpieces to ever be made ever. Met all the dudes in that lineup too and they were all great dudes. Miss them very much. I'm always hoping for a reunion with Jamie Hope on vocals

[@R0binah00d]

“Sharks in your mouth” will forever be one of my favorite songs.

[@xClaydogzx]

Speaking of Butcher, Ed brought up his story on the Life Is Peachy Podcast especially about the Eternal Lord record etc etc

[@dongdong8933]

@@dongdong8933 I'm following him in IG. We were chatting even a few times and he is definitely out of scene right now, I don't even know what he's doing for life. Last time he was an officer in UK if I'm not mistaken. He is really a nice guy and open to communication.

[@toymachinejosh1]

Was a huge fan of Prom Queen, love from NC, USA.

[@clubgood]

Thanks for listening mate!

[@lewisb85]

As a Brit who lives in Australia the only decent brit called ed who is in a band is Redcliff (carpathian-get him on the podcast lads) from what I remember they moved to Aus about the same time so a few people I ran into in the scene would get them confused, I remember doing something which is actually rude in UK culture by referring to them by their surnames. It's like T from VVEGAS it was easier just to refer to him as TVegas because his real name is just so common in Australia.

[@whyyes6428]

Why did you feel the need to write 'As a Britt who lives in Australia..' in front of a sentence so pointlessly? What does being a Britt in Australia justify of substantiate? It's pointless

[@ewatfred]

Still have a Choose to Love Live or Die EP signed in my CD collection somewhere.

[@shannonmagann9009]

that b side cd lives in my pc disc drive for years now.

[@TricksBe4Chicks]

I first heard music for the recently deceased which one of the best albums ever. But after listening to crafter and their old stuff it is my favourite sound ever. Only got to see prom queen with Jamie hope as vocalist but he also fit the band very well. My favourite band ever and they’re from my city

[@patbruno3049]

I'm just a beach kid from the east coast of the US, my friends and almost everyone in high school at the time loved this band. We played Say Goodbye with middle fingers out the windows of the cars on the last day of school. Just wanted to say thanks to all the Prom Queen members throughout the years. Wish i had the opportunity to see them live.

[@clubgood]

amazing band to see live. We were lucky in Australia to see them consistently throughout their career. Amazing to hear you guys were bumping it over in the states.

[@pixelfriendlybbr]

So glad I got to see them with PWD here in NZ. It wasn’t with Ed but still a dream come true

[@GamingForTheRecentlyDeceased]

As a massive IKTPQ fan back in the day and the redshore why did Jamie sound so different on the prom queen album? he was a beast in redshore and even more brutal in his new hardcore type band. His screams in the prom album seemed so gimped like he was holding back. Sounds like he was just sighing ever so lightly, like he just got grounded and was frustrated

[@blaythessteuer]

He’s versatile and was likely trying to put his own spin on what people expected for the followup to the butcher record

[@gloomykasumi8580]

I hate your opinion tbh. I loved Jamie's vocals. Easily one of the best vocalists of all time and Def the best IKTPQ vocalist

[@nathanglennie]

Made me proud to be from Adelaide! Great times in the late 2000s

[@aidensnacklad4178]

This is so random - I've never seen this podcast before. But I remember you boys from the craig jones seminar in Perth!

Only time I saw them was at Hellfest 04 in the small room in NJ. I also saw shotpointblack when they were opening for Casey Jones and Kids like us in Bound brook NJ around that time.

[@mikemcwhirter3261]

The Hunt for Ida wave were the band for me.

[@roxanbar1571]

I get it their name is too long but every time I hear this band refered to as "Prom Queen" I cringe. It's just not a catchy name in and of itself and 80% of the time the band is called that
