Pig - The Swining / Red Raw & Sore [Pink]

Finally back in print, this release collects the 1993 masterpiece The Swining and the 1994 companion EP Red Raw & Sore from Raymond Watts’ notorious project, PIG. A foundational figure in the industrial scene, Watts—an early member of KMFDM and a collaborator with legends like Einstürzende Neubauten—crafted a sound that is "theatrical, orchestral, and punishingly heavy." This collection captures PIG at a creative zenith, blending mechanical precision with a dark, sleazy cabaret aesthetic.

The vinyl edition brings these "long-awaited" recordings to the turntable with the "grit and grandeur" they deserve. It features high-profile remixes by Keith LeBlanc and KMFDM, further cementing the project's ties to the industrial elite. Whether it's the driving force of "The Swining" or the visceral edge of "Red Raw & Sore," this reissue is a mandatory artifact for anyone who follows the "glorious and depraved" evolution of post-industrial music.
