Pig Destroyer - Sheet Metal Girl

Band:  Pig Destroyer
Song:  Sheet Metal Girl
Album:  Prowler In The Yard (2001)
Genre:  Grindcore
Bandcamp:  pigdestroyer.bandcamp.com

One of the icons of Grindcore, the wall of noise that is Pig Destroyer fits rather well into my current mood.  Up until I did that Grind theme in May though I don't think I'd actually heard their music before.  At the time I wasn't super sure why I had avoided them, but the more I actually looked at their lyrics the more I realized why, haha

Honestly the only way to listen to Grindcore is to totally ignore whatever the words are.  These dudes say some awful things in their little 1 to 2 minute song windows doncha know.

Enjoy though, Christmas is coming and all that.

Pig Destroyer - Sis

Band:  Pig Destroyer
Song:  Sis
Album:  Book Burner
Genre:  Metalcore
Bandcamp:  pigdestroyer.bandcamp.com
Language:  Strong

I really couldn't really have a Grind themed month without mentioning Pig Destroyer.  Originally toying with the names Cop Killer and Cop Destroyer, they decided to switch it up to a slightly more subtle option.  Though active since '97, they really hit it off in 2001 when they released their album Prowler In The Yard.

Basically every year that goes past their sound tightens up a little and the group improves.  Personally I would say dropping the political stance of earlier music is a good thing since they won't make an impact so much in a scene like this.

The really cool thing is that they were operating as a 3 piece outfit for several years, just drums, guitar, and vocals.  They picked up a guy on electronics in 2006, but it wasn't until like 2014 they even got a bass player.

Solid sound for such a stripped down act.

Week Of Evil: Pig Destroyer - Loathsome

Band:  Pig Destroyer
Genre:  Grindcore
Themes:  We're not touching that.

My brother listens to some really weird music.  Some of it's really fun, some of it's really weird.

This would fall under the weird area.

As far as Grind bands go, Pig Destroyer is pretty good.  Granted, I'm not really familiar with too many bands of the genre, but I still will call them really good.

The song and video are really weird though, so know that going in.
