1) In his past lives, PIG … Read Full Bio ↴There are more than one artist named PIG.
1) In his past lives, PIG was Lord Raymond Watts, known variously as Raymond Scaballero in Foetus, an icy addition to Psychic TV, a savage PA destroyer in Einstürzende Neubauten, and a founding catalyst of KMFDM. Watts began his arrest record in London where he was most likely pissed off about something and doing sound manipulations, loops and live sound for Psychic TV. He soon crashed into Einstürzende Neubauten (probably in a strip bar) and escaped the smug complacency of the English music scene by moving to Hamburg, Germany and setting up his Building Site studio in a bunker of munitions factory, where he invited in artists including Sprung Aus Den Wolken, Die Haut, and Christiane F. In his pursuit of a cutting edge music scene he sought out like-minded souls to create terrorism instead of tonality. Playing on European/American Neubauten tours, he quickly earned a reputation for destroying PA systems -- the security guards sent by the PA companies to protect the gear were not amused. Between their security thugs and ones hired by Watts to protect him from them, most nights ended up bloody, tense and occasionally on fire.
While collaborating with Neubauten's "gritter" twins: Blixa Bargeld and FM Einheit, Watts lived in the red light district next to a brothel, in amongst the sleaze of the Hamburg docks. Watts heard about Sascha Konietzko who was doing bizarre work with vacuum cleaners, and after drinking him into submission, dragged him and his tall, pale cohort En Esch down the stairs into the freezing Building Site studio, where they locked themselves into Watts' "frozen cesspit" with 20' steel sheets and other garbage, emerging with the debut What Do You Know Deutschland?
As one of the architects of the KMFDM sound, Watts went east to plow through the entrails of the German avant garde, planting the seed of his new experiment while KMFDM moved to America. The mutant was born out of the blood and piss in a basement studio opposite the Berlin Wall and became the 1988 debut album A Poke In The Eye. In addition, Watts was recruited by Foetus (Jim Thirwell) to be in his first live band, and after a European tour which involved disappearances, catholic school girls, and worms, Thirwell stayed on the produce the 12" Shit for Brains. Watts said he'd buy the next round and went to the US to record Steroid Maximus with Thirwell, and also did sound for Crime & the City Solution.
When the wall came down, Watts split his time between London and Tokyo, looking for a new alien habitat after Berlin's pleasure dome exploded. PIG morphed with various collaborators and Watts started working with Japanese musicians, turning his attention to Schaft, which became a huge hit there. The Watts system emerged as an elastic style of working with refuse and collaborating with pariahs: one man's trash is another man's treasure, darling.
Long-time PIG fan Trent Reznor came to see him around '91/'92 at a tiny club in Camden, England and introduced himself to the unimpressed Watts who was surprised that this fellow knew most of PIG's scattered discography. PIG was invited to open Nine Inch Nails' European tour in '94 -- complete with real pig heads on stage that were a load of fun after a few days' decomposition. Later, in 1995, Reznor's Nothing label released his fourth album, Sinsation.
In the mid 1990s, Konietzko ran into Watts again and they worked on the Sin, Sex & Salvation EP, which led to Watts returning to the fold for Nihil, the most successful KMFDM album to date, which included the Watts-penned hit Juke Joint Jezebel. Watts also appeared on the band's Symbols album, doing vocals on the delightfully-titled Spit Sperm and Unfit, while KMFDM's Gunter Schulz and Sascha Konietzko appear on the 1997 release Wrecked, furthering their incestuous relationship.
Still bigger in Japan than the rest of the world, PIG released his sixth album, Genuine American Monster, there in 1999. Finally, in 2002, PIG found a new American home with the Metropolis Records label, who had that year recently released the album ATTAK.
In 2012 PIG released two demos; written by Watts; and performed by Watts and Marc Heal (Cubanate) entitled: Drugzilla (Rough As A Hog's Arse Mix) released on June 8th; Shake (Rough Mix) released on July 14th; and Drugzilla (Pork Talk Mix by Raymond Watts) released on December 2nd.
2) PIG is a Japanese melodic punk band from Japan.

¡Toxico!
Pig Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And he'll spit on the words of your hopeless excuses
Wrong or right? Day over night?
Who cares? It's a one-sided fight
You got full specification black hole rules
Your world's gonna be his thermal pool
Wasted lives make waste
Spare a dime - You're wasting time
As he seeps and creeps through the desert sand
And he'll be whistling through your lungs tonight
While the lights go out across the land
T-O-X-I-C-O
T-O-X-I-C-O
Toxico no no no
Toxico yeah yeah yeah yeah
He's got a catalogue of crimes
From corporate grimes
And six billion shares in oblivion
Your dividend is a life of hell
With a rotten rope and a broken bell
Ignorance brews a wicked potion
Stupidity is the mother of devotion
Want not - waste not
It's total liquidation back to backwards
Toxico - that cute pariah
Toxico - he's the sweetest liar
This is trial by fire
In a kingdom of cash
Toxico - with that holy face
The rotten apple is the human race
Your illegitimate human son of greed
He'll give you pyaemia
Sapraemia
Septicaemia
Leukemia
Toxico is highly elated!
Toxico is intoxicated...
He's burstin' out of his boots
With his crashes to ashes and lust for dust
You'll be crawling across the face of this furnace
Begging for mercy - digging for death
He'll wrap his fingers round your neck
And squeeze... 'till your last breath
He'll give you shocks and stares teenage airs
Golden wares radiation scares
He's a permanent emergency coming you
You're permanantly impotent to what he'll do
He hangs around outside school gates
Peddling sweet inticing bait
With four headed piggies waiting in the wings
Mutations are such lovely things
Toxico - that sweet pariah
Toxico - he's the sweetest liar
This is trial by fire
In a kingdom of cash
Toxico with that holy face
The rotten apple is the human race
Your illegitimate human son of greed
Malignant Maligner - cancerous refined
He's your illegitimate human son of greed
He'll give you pyaemia
Sapraemia
Septicaemia
Leukemia
Toxico with that holy face
The rotten apple is the human race
Your illegitimate human son of greed
Toxico!
The lyrics to PIG's song ¡Toxico! seem to talk about a manipulative and deceitful character named Toxico, who takes pleasure in causing chaos and destruction around him. The opening lines indicate that Toxico has deceived, spied on, crucified, and ridiculed others with ease. He doesn't care whether his actions are right or wrong, as long as they lead to his victory. The lyrics also suggest that Toxico's influence is so strong that it can turn someone's world into a thermal pool, and wasted lives only make waste, while crying for help is pointless because ultimately, everyone's going to die.
The chorus "T-O-X-I-C-O" emphasizes the song's title and reminds the listeners that Toxico is someone you should avoid at all costs. The following verses focus on the crimes that Toxico has committed and how they make him a cute pariah whose influence is intoxicating. He's a master of manipulation, who peddles sweet inticing bait with four-headed piggies waiting in the wings, causing mutations everywhere he goes. Toxico is like a cancerous growth that affects the human race, and the only outcome of his actions is diseases like pyaemia, sapraemia, septicaemia, and leukemia.
The song's lyrics are full of metaphors, and the references to disease and cancer seem to point towards the toxicity present in the world, both on an individual level and on a broader societal level. The recurrent theme is that Toxico's evil influence seems to be present everywhere and that it can affect everyone. The song's dark imagery and intense vocals make it a compelling and thought-provoking piece of music.

Begging for mercy - digging for death
You'll be looking for an escape from the agony
He'll wrap his fingers round your neck
Toxico will suffocate you with his poisonous grip
And squeeze... 'till your last breath
Toxico will not stop until you're dead
He'll give you shocks and stares teenage airs
Toxico will toy with you and leave you bewildered
Golden wares radiation scares
Toxico will offer you fake but attractive items and exude fear through radiation
He's a permanent emergency coming you
Toxico is always ready to cause chaos and destruction at any moment
You're permanantly impotent to what he'll do
You're helpless and unable to prevent Toxico's actions
He hangs around outside school gates
Toxico targets vulnerable young people to ensnare them in his schemes
Peddling sweet inticing bait
Toxico offers irresistible offers to lure you in
With four headed piggies waiting in the wings
There are others like Toxico ready to exploit you
Mutations are such lovely things
Toxico takes delight in the chaos and destruction his actions cause
Malignant Maligner - cancerous refined
Toxico is a skilled and refined troublemaker who wreaks havoc in others' lives

I did not even know that J.G. Thriwell produced this until just now. Always wondered why the Venture Bros. theme reminded me of this.
