PIG DESTROYER boil metal down to its muscle, sinew, and bone – razor-sharp guitar, percussive pummelling, and a lone, stark howl – and use them to commit a vicious assault. The lyrics paint loathsome, frightening images of pitch-black self-hatred and the frailty of the human experience. These musical manifestations only serve to cement their already legendary status. Having not been in Australia and New Zealand since 2008, PIG DESTROYER’s long overwaited return has just one goal. To unnerve the unprepared with a deranged, grisly intensity which very few, if any, can match.
The Everblack Podcast spoke to J. R. Hayes from Pig Destroyer about their long-awaited return to Australia after 17 years, touring with Wormrot, their infamous “Plug Destroyer” merch, and sharing wild stories from chaotic shows like GWAR-B-Q. J.R. also talks about playing with heroes like Acid Bath and where Pig Destroyer are at with their next record.
