#113 - Pig Destroyer - Terrifyer
from Riff Worship · host Austin Paulson, Dylan Adams, and Justin Swindle
Guitarist Scott Hull made the most his time recording and playing in bands, honing his skills and adopting a format that would lay the groundwork for his next project: Pig Destroyer.Joining forces with former Enemy Soil members J.R. Hayes and Brian Harvey, the band initially channeled their politically-charged hardcore influences before finding their stride on brutal standouts like Prowler in the Yard and, of course, Terrifyer!Much like its predecessors, Terrifyer was deliberately abstruse. Pig Destroyer crafted jagged, unpredictable songs, often cutting riffs short before they could settle in. The album itself was written very spontaneously and rehearsed just long enough to capture its chaos in the studio.Please join three purposely difficult weirdos as they discuss Pig Destroyer’s purposely difficult, grindcore classic… Teriffyer!Recommendations:SCALP - NOT WORTHY OF HUMAN COMPASSIONFaetooth - LabyrinthinePygmy Lush - TOTEMAssück - Misery IndexRevocation - New Gods, New MastersFollow Riff WorshipInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/riffworshippod/Twitter: https://x.com/RiffWorshipPodYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RiffWorshipPodCheck out our Official Playlists:Riffs on Repeat (Spotify)Hits from the Crypt (Apple)
