Sitting five feet away from this brutally beautiful performance, I realized quickly that I had the best seat to the best show in the World in that moment,” says KEXP DJ Troy Nelson. “Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs simply Rock Rock Rock Rock Rock Rock Rock.”

KEXP was a real bucket list moment for us,” notes guitarist Adam Ian Sykes. “It was such a pleasure to be invited to record a session, we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.”

Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs’ 2023 album ‘Land of Sleeper’ (currently available on vinyl and streaming services) has been praised by Pitchfork, Clash, The Line of Best Fit, and many more. Videos were released for the coruscating Ultimate Hammer, a high-octane sonic ride that melds classic riffage with the group’s predilection for offbeat chaos, and Mr Medicine, the audio equivalent of sticking a fork in plug socket. They also previously released a blistering live performance video of the track Terror’s Pillow.

‘Land of Sleeper’ is the heavy-psych/garage-rock band’s fourth studio album and follows 2020’s ‘Viscerals,’ which Under The Radar described as a “sense bludgeoning amalgamation of metal, punk, and experimental noise at its most brutal,” while Louder declared it “Utterly enthralling.” Kerrang writes, “melding the fuzzed-up, stripped-back muscle of heavyweights like Black Sabbath and Motörhead to progressive sludginess, then pouring on a generous helping of the wryly abstract humour of IDLES, this third album is a strange, unruly offering.”
