Background notes
Archive material and source history
Orgy of Pigs formed in San Francisco in 1989 with Jaye Barnes on vocals and guitar, Steven Drury on bass, and Chris Cooper on drums. They put out their first album, 'Slaughter Divine,' in 1993, a record built on distorted guitars and Barnes's guttural delivery. The band's sound has always been abrasive, with songs like 'Impounder' and 'Soul Shatterer' leaning into that industrial metal dissonance.
Their lyrics have drawn criticism for dealing with violence and nihilism, and they've been accused of promoting misogyny. The band has defended the work as a reflection of harsh realities. They've released several albums since that debut, including 'Bastard' in 1995 and 'The Gnostic' in 1997.
Beyond the original trio, the lineup has included guitarists Steve Bereznak and Zoran Arsenijevic. Tracks like 'Oubliette' and 'Time Stop' show the band's consistent approach to heavy, confrontational music. They put out 'Descent' in 2008.
