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.

Pig Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's trouble to come
You'll have your eyes wide open
And your belly to the sun
With that attitude
There's trouble to come
You'll have your mouth wide open
And your best suit on
What should I know?
Hey tell me lord
What should I know?
The last one hired
Is the first one fired
Everybody say "why?"
Everybody say "why?"
If we're late to break
Could be the last mistake
And everybody's gonna die
Everybody's gonna die
Hey tell me lord
What should I know?
Hey tell me lord
What should I know?
We need a fountain of miracles
A fountain of miracles
Give me a fountain of miracles
A fountain of miracles
Hey tell me lord
What should I know?
Hey tell me lord
What should I know?
Rhapsody in rhythm
His loving hand is given
Rhapsody in rhythm
My dirty soul is smitten
Take your pity from the mount
Pick your misery from the mouth
The devil dances on an empty pocket
The eyeballs jumpin' outta them sockets
I feel the urge of suicide
We're on the verge of genocide
You're under my skin
Tell the next of kin
I'm under this gun
I'm under this knife
From the blackest rocks
Shines the brightest lights
Hey tell me lord
What should I know?
Hey tell me lord
What should I know?
Shake me lord is there something
I should know?
Shake me lord is there something
I should know?
Shake me lord is there something
Shake me lord is there something
Shake me lord is there something
I should know?

In "The Fountain of Miracles," PIG explores the theme of existentialism and the search for meaning in life. The lyrics suggest that life is unpredictable and filled with obstacles, and it's easy to make mistakes and experience pain. However, there is a sense that the singer is seeking guidance from a higher power, asking the lord what they should do or know. The repeated line, "We need a fountain of miracles," suggests a desire for something miraculous or transformative that can help us navigate the difficulties of life.
The imagery in the lyrics is often dark and visceral, describing the potential for danger and violence. The lines "If we're late to break / Could be the last mistake / And everybody's gonna die" convey a sense of urgency and the idea that life can be taken away at any moment. The repetition of the phrase "We [verb] together" suggests a sense of solidarity and shared experience among humanity, whether positive or negative.
