2009 release. The sixth studio album was recorded over the last five years. The album was mixed and manipulated at the Mattress Factory Studios in Chicago, Zeromancer Studio in Oslo and A-String Sound in Beijing. It is uniquely Pigface combining all the alumni (Connely, Levi, Esch, and the usual suspects) with new blood (Hanin Elais, Noko, Alex Moklebust, Chant, and others).

'bout time
The liner notes mention that this might be the final Pigface album, which would be a shame but maybe inevitable. Sometimes the magic just fades.Not as eclectic as Easy listening, which is welcome and the only real disappointment I have with the album is the song The Good, The Bad and the Druggly, which while not a bad song, dresses up a pretty familiar bass riff, which seems a little beneath them.I had to rate it only 4 stars because Pigface used to really wow me now, not as much. Still it's enjoyable.

It pains me to write this but...
Phoning in an album full of boring, generic songs that all sound the same would be bad for any band or artist, but for the legendary Pigface, it's completely unacceptable. It's also the first of the 6 main Pigface albums that doesn't feature at least one great single. At least they don't plan on cranking out 3 of these like Ministry. Put a fork in that hog, it's done.

Not sure what happened!
Loved these guys in the 90s. This release, I liked the 1st song, but the rest I wasn't really impressed with. Not sure if I'll ever listen to it again. I'll stick with Gub and A New Low In High, which were my favorite Pigface albums.

Great CDs
Some times it just gets annoying, but I love to listen through itI was really surprised I seen En Esch on the inside cover listed as a member... He's great, I'm glad these guys work together

Not as good as you might expect...
i had been waiting for this album, but had I known it was this lacking in ideas, I would not have bought it. Only Chris Connelly makes an impression. The rest is predictable.

Four Stars
Pretty good industrial.

really sticks in yer craw.
At first i was slow getting on it, but after a few listens i was hooked. better than meth, but not quite as good as crack.best tracks for your ear bleeding pleasure are - electric knives club, mercenary, and fight the power. Scoop it up like the last turd in the chicken yard, as it really is the last turd in the chicken yard.R.I.H. pigface.

Do Not Buy Anything related to Martin Atkins
Please do not buy any products by Martin Atkins/Pigface, he has no morals and goes out of his way to be a crappy person. If you don't believe me, contact any artist that has released music though his "label" Invisible Records and ask them what their experience was like working with him, I guarantee it won't be positive. Invisible Records = invisible payments to artists, Martin Atkins should be deported back to the UK.
