Example Album: Blbá Evropa
Location: Czechoslovakia
Years Active: 1986-present?
Style: Metal percussion
P.I.G. are an industrial band from Czechoslovakia, formed in 1986. They are pretty similar in sound to Test Dept., early Laibach too, though they definitely have their own distinct identity. They only released one LP, Blbá Evropa in 1991, which has pretty epic metal percussion moments, machine samples, and so much more. This album actually has a diverse sound throughout, but feels very cohesive in an early industrial sort of way. "Stupid Europe."
As far as I'm aware they are still active, having played a show with Test Dept. in 2019, though who's to say since the pandemic. Regardless, they are a pretty cool band who are definitely worth checking out.
