PIG (Metropolis Records)
In his past lives, PIG war lord Raymond Watts was known variously as Raymond Scaballero in Foetus, an icy addition to Psychic TV, a savage PA destroyer in Einsturzende Neubauten, and a founding catalyst of KMFDM. <PIG> is a soufflé of scorching, searing squeals, pummeling percussion and eccentric electronics. A collection of beautifully-written, catchy rock songs with quirky arrangements is a starting point, but doesn’t get close to what makes <PIG> unique. Raymond’s voice ricochets between delicious soulful croon and aggressive, snarling growl. A band of degenerates, a little old, a little new, a little harrowed, a little black and blue, is braving the blood-slicked highways of (North) America to appear near you to make an unholy racket in your presence.
