UGLY AMERICANS pres. PIGS and Sofy Major

PIGS
https://youtu.be/n2n-KGi_LPM

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.

Wronger is Pigs second album, to be released on September 29th.

SOFY MAJOR
https://youtu.be/_KcyKfGqB6Y

From the post-industrial wilderness of Clermont-Ferrand, France?s violently addictive hardcore-soaked noise rock outfit, SOFY MAJOR, has completed their third LP ?Waste?.

With just under forty-two minutes of new material, Waste undoubtedly sees SOFY MAJOR charting new boundaries, and at a more relaxed pace. While not shying away from their rampant outbursts completely, the raging appears more subdued, with slightly more melodious sensibilities enveloping its delivery.

The grimy Unsane/Harvey Milk/Hammerhead-influenced Big-Muff sonic core of the band?s delivery is here fused to a rocked-out underbelly analogous to the output of Coliseum, Rising, Floor, and the like. Calling once again upon their trusted engineer team, SOFY MAJOR enlisted Dave Curran (Unsane, Pigs, Big Business) to produce Waste, this time on home turf to avoid hurricanes, recording the album at Black Box Studio in France. The output was then mixed by Andrew Schneider (Pigs, Julie Christmas, Unsane) at Translator Audio in Brooklyn and mastered by Carl Saff at Saff Mastering.
