This to me is their best album. Terrifier and prowler will always be their iconic albums but phantom is their best musically. It perfectly blends their grooves and grind

I remember back before 2010. Still just a kid in high school. I didn't know of too much extreme music. But Pig Destroyer was one band I did know of. Slammed this on repeat back then. 10 years later, really developed in extreme music. This and Prowler in the Yard was my stuff. Listening to the first time in quite a while. Simply wonderful.
Yes! I discovered this band through this album when I was in highschool and then went back and discovered “Prowler.” They are the best two PD albums for sure!
Holy cow, this album is so much fun. Bouncy groove dissolving into circle madness glassbreak to close the title track is perfect. You know that horse drug Lance Armstrong took? EPO? This is sonic EPO.
i remember my mom thought that when she took me to the mall and i got Kill from Cannibal Corpse, on the drive home she said “when the hell does this song end?!” and i told her it was on track 3 or 4 lmao
What the hell is up with the hidden track? Upon multiple listens i also noticed that you can hear cars driving by behind the crickets. Wonder if there is any meaning to it or if the band was just fucking around with ambience.
kind of, it doesn't sound like most grind, it's far, far catchier and has more groovy and catchy thrash riffs, also it's kind of more technical. it's more like grind infused with technical death metal with an emphasis on the riffs being catchy and groovy idk
Bought it at Magnolia Thunderpussy back when cd's were a thing. Stuck it in a portable, threw on some gigantic Bose headphones, and proceed to water my rich grandparents garden while they were on holiday in Europe. $200 housewives walking $4000 poodles, all around me. Daily. They didn't know what a middle finger was, apparently. Neighborhood complaints are better than citations I guess.

I can't possibly imagine any argument for Book Burner over this, that album was just bad. Unless you're pretending Book Burner didn't happen. Grind fans will argue Ward 6 over this and it's understandable because it's more true to grind, but if we're talking about overall quality I still think this is hands down better than Ward 6. Terrifyer and Prowler are the only full albums in their discog I think are clearly better than this. *38 Counts of Battery doesn't count because it's a compilation.
Well the genre is called grindcore, hardcore influences like breakdowns are a given. Still provides an aural assault that no mere metalcore album could ever muster which is even more impressive when you consider this wasn't recorded with any bass guitar. (Or so I've read)
+Planetary Pieces It's true. Until Book Burner, they had no bassist (Which gave it a strange rough sort of dryness to it that I always thought sounded cool)
I actually found it a couple of years ago, probably around the time you originally asked. I can't find it now, but I remember it was a sermon or religious speech, about a very devout man who went to work on an oil rig. Another man made fun of him for his beliefs constantly. One day, the oil rig has some sort of catastrophe, causing part of it to explode. This is where the sample starts, and the man who is all burnt was the one mocking the man who pulled him from the flames. In the end it was something about how hellfire always awaits the worst sinners or something like that.
Trigger drums and artsy fartsy lyrics that could have been written by an edgy 13 year old. It doesn't get worse then this. I wish Seth were still around to make fun of such people.
One of their best. This and Prowler are way up in the pantheons of phenomenal grind albums.
No Terrifyer?
This to me is their best album. Terrifier and prowler will always be their iconic albums but phantom is their best musically. It perfectly blends their grooves and grind
No such thing as a bad Pig Destroyer album. This one is easily my favorite.
ThoughT Crime Spree HELL YEAH OH YEAH WOOOOOH
Definitely the best, then Book Burner.
Head caged sucked. I only liked it because Scott Hull is a monster.
@@elyogito5621 Head Cage really ain't all that bad but it is most likely their worst album for sure or my least fave etc
I'm not so sure, i found Head Caged kinda boring, which is the worst thing I can say about a grindcore album

Thank you for this! Saves me from having to dig out the CD for the booklet.

bought this album for my Sony Walkman when it first came out 2007 in High School...snare drums are like firecrackers...love it =)

Not on a walkman anymore, but definitely still jammin' this one in high school :)
Yeah! i bought this album and then pass to my Sony Ericsson cell phone, i listen it everyday on my way to university, high times!
Like a sony discman? Was this released on cassette?
@@Mcgoats Yeah on CD. Sony Discman with skip-protection
bought this album when I was 11. it still as good as it was back then, my mom wasn't sure about it, but after some time she started enjoying it xD.

Fuck yeah, mom!
This is an awesome album!
This is one of their best
Such an impressive display of sonic defilement to my little ears. The colors in the album artwork or so disorienting it's pretty awesome.

@@1いかり Yes, a nice time discovering them back then. I will also throw in the 'Terrifyer' cause that has a special place in my heart.
5:06 is absolutely jaw dropping
This band is what made me fall in love with drums
OH! Shit. This is really good, how could I have missed this album?!
19:52 "Crazy Train"?
Does sounds similar not gonna lie lol
No.
"Complete Batshit Train!"
I love this album, so many good songs...
Holy cow, this album is so much fun. Bouncy groove dissolving into circle madness glassbreak to close the title track is perfect.
You know that horse drug Lance Armstrong took? EPO? This is sonic EPO.
Dope artwork
This is some real serial killer, chop off your fingers, scream in the mirror type shit. Pig Destroyer is one of the greatest
R.I.P Blake Harrison 😢🕊🦅🙏🏽♾️🤟🏾🏞💙🇦🇷🎼
Love that outro. Makes me dream
Holy shit! This band, Pig Destroyer, is amazing! It reminds me of the book Lord of the Flies by William Goulding.
Once it came out, I've been interested in to PIG DESTROYER!!!
Holy fuck, this album is a monster, Ive been to neglectant for to long
fucken oath
Great album to have road rage with carnage and massacre on the highway
one of their best
RIP BLAKE :(((
2019

#SUNROCKPLUS
Holy fuck i thought i was still on the first song by track 7
i remember my mom thought that when she took me to the mall and i got Kill from Cannibal Corpse, on the drive home she said “when the hell does this song end?!” and i told her it was on track 3 or 4 lmao
I love this guys!!!!!!!!!!!
"your legs look so sexy out of context"
Twisted stuff man
Book burner is the heaviest quickest badass shit ever.m AS WE ALL KNOW!!!
Scotty Brix this is one of the greatest bands ever
somehow I felt that this album has more napalm death and -core influences than previous recordings, or maybe I'm just too high
napalm death not so much,more like thrash and a little -core in there
hella mosh riffs
more core than anything, it's great but not in the same insane tier level that Prowler and Terrifyer (specially Terrifyer) were
@@Hola-tq4pg Terrifyer is about as good as Head Cage.
No such thing pussy
20:41 GODDAMNNN!!!!
Can someone recommend me some band that sounds similar to this pig destroyer album? Freaking love it!
Wormrot is one that comes to mind. 3 Piece grindcore band from Indonesia
Agoraphobic News like I would say agoraphobic nosebleed but it's literally in your name so look up scour.
@FlacidRob brilliant here I got to listen to it! Good job
Kill the Client
From Singapore
Did John drew the cover of the album?
+TheZooropaBaby Yes, John Baizley, the marvel.
+Tom Asakura Yes
+Shannon Cook A very amazing artist.
Tom Asakura yeah I mean John from Baroness
+TheZooropaBaby Sorry, I realized that you knew a bit after I posted that. My error, sorry.
Buen Grindcore
Indeed
What is that country bit called?
Ray Rice...I've Got A New Heartache
classic !!
/m\
What movie is the intro sample from where a girl says "mommy they're coming"?
my fave
Music to do something mechanical by
i interchange between this and terrifyer alot
Best grindcore band ever
i fucking LIVE for these pig destroyer riffs
Outro Maxxxx
omg this band still exist ?
Yup. And they're supposed to make a new album
better be proud of it, sucker
Marc-Olivier Lessard-Brunet putting out a new album real soon too
What the hell is up with the hidden track? Upon multiple listens i also noticed that you can hear cars driving by behind the crickets. Wonder if there is any meaning to it or if the band was just fucking around with ambience.
Seems to be result of "medication time" in the loop of the album,then the violent awakening at track one...
Here is the song in the background. ua-cam.com/video/EitEqOcKtyQ/v-deo.html
EEYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Sounds like it was remixed. Still good though
Still punishes!
I dig this album. Got to see them in San Diego a few years ago.
So unique, so brutal, so f, n tight!!!
Grindcore to grind teeth on. Hmmm yes.
I'm gonna stomp the fuck out of an ant 🐜 to this album
You need to.
So this is grindcore 👨🦲
kind of, it doesn't sound like most grind, it's far, far catchier and has more groovy and catchy thrash riffs, also it's kind of more technical. it's more like grind infused with technical death metal with an emphasis on the riffs being catchy and groovy idk
name final song in 32:14

You woulda thought relapse would have upped a better recording then this
WHEN IT'S ON IT'S ON.

The last track was awkward and weird ....classic pig destroyer

Thought Crime Spree
Increase the dose diminish the high
A smile is a pipe dream suffering aged like wine
Aged like wine
Coughing up blood
With my mind on fire
Juggling switchblades on a high
Tension wire
I don't have any scars
Only dormant wounds
That crack like fault lines
I only have
Five thoughts anymore
And four of them
Are of you
Body bursts and leaks
Like a trash bag
Into the gutter
And the grave
And the grave

well i like book burner, but then again it was the first pig album i heard so maybe im just nostalgic :/
+Koettnylle
Hey man calm down, we're all friends here
I am calm. How about you?
this thing literally might be better than Prowler.
Non
weak ass album. too many breakdowns, sounds almost like metalcore.

im pretty sure the bassist joined after book burner
shhhiiiiiiiiiit!!!yeah o.k.!!!
this album f,n KILLS!!!!
8:10 what sample is that? Where is that speech from?
I actually found it a couple of years ago, probably around the time you originally asked. I can't find it now, but I remember it was a sermon or religious speech, about a very devout man who went to work on an oil rig. Another man made fun of him for his beliefs constantly.

who is seth ?
@@danknormie4986 Seth Putman from Anal Cunt - a grindcore band who trolled the whole grindcore, hardcore punk and extreme metal scene.
Pig Destroyer, Napalm Death, Agrophobic Nosebleed and Carcass are the only decent grindcore bands in my opinion. Most other ones are crap
Dude, there's a lot more of good grind out there. You have to know them though. Look for 'Clinging in the trees of a forest fire ' , really intense.
Edit: ALSO Wormrot
The Kill and Insect Warfare are also pretty good
Insect warfare are badass as fuck
@@MisterAutist
Converge?????????
The cymbals on this album are tinnitus inducing.
He used cheap Paiste cymbals, really ruins the sound

im glad i stopped putting off this album after being stuck on prowler in the yard
