SUMMARY:PIG DESTROYER
LOCATION:Scala
DESCRIPTION:Virginia extreme sound nihilists PIG DESTROYER deliver savage g
 rindcore that is both intentionally confrontational and thoroughly pummeli
 ng. PIG DESTROYER formed in 1997\, when vocalist J.R. Hayes and AGORAPHOBI
 C NOSEBLEED guitarist Scott Hull decided to unite in their efforts to crea
 te utterly destructive grindcore. The trio began rehearsing and immediatel
 y found that their common musical interests produced intelligent and incen
 diary music. This lineup meshed well and recorded their self-titled demo\,
  which met to a rousing response. PIG DESTROYER was growing in name and so
 und\, a CD entitled 'Explosions in Ward 6' was released. Great reaction to
  the 'Explosions in Ward 6' album established PIG DESTROYER as one of the 
 best new grind acts to emerge worldwide in the last decade.\n\nRelapse sig
 ned the band and in 2001 PIG DESTROYER took listeners on a rampaging journ
 ey through an unsettling\, psychotic world with their album\, 'Prowler In 
 The Yard.' Melding an insane musical attack with similarly jarring lyrical
  prose and an unmatched propensity to incite\, 'Prowler In The Yard' hit l
 isteners like a coal-black monolith of nihilism. The record stunned music 
 fans\, garnering lavishing praise\, and becoming one of the more talked ab
 out extreme music releases in recent history. Headlining performances at t
 he 2002 New England Metal and Hardcore Festival and 2002 Relapse Records C
 MJ Showcase\, alongside a hi-profile set at the Relapse Records Contaminat
 ion Festival in Philadelphia\, cemented PIG DESTROYER place among the new 
 goliaths of heavy music.\n\nPIG DESTROYER then continued work on the follo
 w-up to 'Prowler In The Yard.' In what would turn out to be an exhausting
 \, lengthy creative process\, the band assumed the ambitious goal of creat
 ing a multi-media monster (CD / Audio-DVD package) with their next release
 . Choosing to name the album 'Terrifyer\,' the album saw its release in th
 e Fall of 2004\, embodying a frighteningly compelling mix of metal\, grind
 \, thrash and punk rock that seethes with intensity. PIG DESTROYER's vicio
 us attack set out to envelop the listener in a cocoon of grisly nihilism. 
 'Terrifyer' featured 32 minutes of unrelenting sonic battery as well as th
 e 37-minute Audio-DVD track "Natasha\," mixed in glorious 5.1 Surround Sou
 nd.\n\n2007 saw the release of Phantom Limb\, which received acclaim from 
 critics and listeners worldwide\, cementing their legendary status. For th
 e album\, the band drew inspiration from all that was around them and with
  it\, PIG DESTROYER boil metal down to its muscle\, sinew\, and bone - raz
 or-sharp guitar\, percussive pummeling\, and a lone\, stark howl. Upon the
  album's release\, PIG DESTROYER embarked on their first Australia headlin
 ing tour with BLOOD DUSTER\, TERRORUST\, FUCK I'M DEAD along with a US tou
 r featuring shows with CARCASS\, SUFFOCATION\, MISERY INDEX\, GENGHIS TRON
  and CAR BOMB. In 2009\, the band made festival appearances at Hellfest\, 
 Maryland Deathfest\, CMJ Fest\, and Scion Rock Fest.\n\nIn 2012\, PIG DEST
 ROYER released their brutal follow-up to Phantom Limb with new MISERY INDE
 X drummer\, Adam Jarvis. Book Burner is a return to a raw\, primitive soun
 d and features 19 songs of their signature misanthropic grind.\n\nin 2013 
 PIG DESTROYER released an EP through bandcamp titled “Mass and Volume”
  as part of a charity effort\, with Adam Jarvis’s cousin John jarvis joi
 ning PIG DESTROYER as the band’s first bass player in late 2013.\n\nPIG
