What does worldwide quarantine do to our favorite porcine libertine? Raymond Watts holed up in his sty, creating The Merciless Light, the 2022 album from Pig. Ably aided and abetted by long time accomplices en Esch and Steve White, On The Merciless Light, Watts welcomes a new swine to the trough, as Jim Davies (Pitchshifter/The Prodigy/Hans Zimmer/Extreme Music, and more) joins, lending a whole new level of impeccable credibility and talent. The new album seethes, swings, seduces and snarls. Extraordinary electronics and a glut of glitz, glam, guitars and grooves create a masterful mélange of mirth malice and winking wit from our very own venerable Vicar of Vice, Pig.
