Newcastle’s heavyweight riff merchants Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs are back with the announcement of their fifth studio album 'Death Hilarious', set for release on the 4th April 4th via Rocket Recordings (and Missing Piece Records in North America).
To mark the announcement, the band has unleashed their new single 'Stitches', accompanied by a nightmarish and grotesque animated video directed by Ben Faircloth. The surreal visuals see the band mutated and mutilated by monstrous hybrid creatures as they traverse through a kaleidoscope of dimensions.
Frontman Matt Baty describes 'Stitches' as a departure from the bravado and machismo often associated with their genre. “It’s an expression of vulnerability, paradoxical emotions, and those so familiar pangs of anxiety I wrestle with while butting heads with societal expectations and personal struggles,” he explains.
'Stitches' follows the thunderous single 'Detroit', which debuted last November. Watch the new video for it in the player and see the album's full tracklisting below.
