Nothing here yet, be the first! About the Artist
Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs, hailing from Newcastle, UK, carve a fierce niche in the hard rock and metal scene with their intensely powerful and psychologically probing performances. Vocalist and lyricist Matthew Baty, inspired by the loathsome little slices of death—sleep—channels his dark, dreamlike visions through the band's crushing riffs and thunderous drums. Their fourth album, "Land of Sleeper," recorded at Blank Studios and mastered at Abbey Road, epitomizes their transcendental fusion of nightmarish atmospheres and punishing sonic assaults, often described as momentous and gloriously horrible by critics. Live, their shows are a visceral experience where the boundary between waking and dreaming dissolves, leaving audiences both battered and illuminated—a perfect soundtrack for a world sleepwalking to oblivion. The band consists of Matthew Baty, Sam Grant, John-Michael Hedley, Ewan Mackenzie, and Adam Ian Sykes, whose collective energy propels each performance into a riotous yet controlled frenzy, eliciting comparisons to the best in UK hard rock with a psychedelic edge.
