PIG DESTROYER “Head Cage” LP (Clear)

Colored Vinyl: Clear With Black Smoke

Release date 2023, Relapse Records.

After six long, difficult years of absence, the mighty PIG DESTROYER have reunited to uproot eardrums and crack skulls with their highly anticipated sixth full-length opus, Head Cage (named after a macabre medieval torture device). A visceral maelstrom of animalistic rage and extreme sonic brilliance, Head Cage is a true work of extreme metal art that, with the addition of a bassist, is by far their most dynamic and heaviest record to date. Across twelve tracks, PIG DESTROYER weave harrowing tales of philosophical dualities, touching on mortality and depression, fear and violence, and the darkest complexities of the human condition, all told through the distorted lens of delightfully transgressive vocalist/lyricist JR Hayes. Musically, the band continues to push the boundaries of metal, grindcore, noise and punk, ramping up the intensity and leaving you in a state of total shock, all in under 33 minutes.

Head Cage was recorded by guitarist Scott Hull at Visceral Sound Studios, mixed and mastered by Will Putney (Exhumed, Every Time I Die, Body Count) and features striking artwork by Mark McCoy (Full of Hell, Nothing) along with guest vocals from Richard Johnson and Kat Katz of Agoraphobic Nosebleed and Dylan Walker of Full Of Hell.
