In March 2009, Terrorizer named the album the third best American grindcore release of all time.[2] In July 2015, Relapse Records announced that they would be reissuing Prowler in the Yard with remixed and remastered audio, a variety of 2CD and vinyl formats, and exclusive content including photos, liner notes, and an unreleased track.[3]

Bobby Steele of Misfits and The Undead is featured as the person on the front cover.

The 2015 remix omits "Evacuating Heaven". Scott Hull explains in the liner notes: "In keeping with the edict that we NOT add anything new to this cd, one song's vocal track was missing from the multi-track archives and, instead of recording new vocals for the sake of keeping it in the track sequence, that track (Evacuating Heaven) was omitted. Additionally, the Jennifer "postlogue" that was at the end of Piss Angel was given its own track ID, separating it from the previous song. So now both tracks are by themselves."[4]
