manak Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 We're glad to announce PIGS from NYC / USA will release their first full lenght through Solar Flare Rds. This is SLF007. When Unsane bassist Dave Curran started writing songs on guitar with drummer Jim Paradise (Player's Club, Freshkills, Hellno) the name they tossed out for their fledgling project was simple: PIGS. "We figured it was short enough that press and promoters couldn't fuck it up." Producer Andrew Schneider (Cave In, Converge, Made Out of Babies, Unsane, Keelhaul) was invited to fill-in on bass for a couple of shows and, much to their delight, has refused to leave. The sound ? PIGS sound like the last forty-five minutes of that interminable haul from Portland to San Francisco when both patience and air conditioning are long gone; like a petty, early-morning drunken argument in a gravel parking lot about the stupid, impossible math of how to divide forty-one dollars three ways; like when the left rear bearing on the van that's been squealing and then grinding for days finally gets hot enough to weld itself into the axle and the ancient Detroit Deathtrap grates to a final, shuddering halt. Pigs sound like three guys who have played countless shows in many bands for a couple of decades in several dozen countries and still can't leave it alone. Dave Curran : Guitar, Vocals Andrew Schneider : Bass, Vocals Jim Paradise : Drums are Pigs OUT : late March 2012 (pre-orders just began) ON : 300 black vinyl, 200 clear w/ red haze LISTEN : http://soundcloud.com/solarflarerds/pigs-give-it BUY : http://solarflarerds.bigcartel.com/ (note to the north-american people : the LP will be available directly through the band or on the Melvins / Unsane tour) LINKS : http://www.solarflarerds.com / http://www.pigsnyc.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
