NE Volume interviews Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs

They say:

North East greats Pigs x7 return to our consciousness with superb new album ‘King of Cowards’ and its supporting UK tour. Damian Robinson caught up with guitarist Adam Ian Sykes to talk about the recording process and the challenges of being such an intense band.

We’re loving the new album. Approaching its release to the general public, how are you finding the initial reaction?

It’s been very humbling to hear that people are enjoying it so much. A slight change of direction always leaves you with a faint inner voice telling you people aren’t going to gel with it to the same degree as past releases but thankfully, so far, the reception’s been great. Of course, we’re not going to hear much criticism direct to our weathered faces and a quick vanity search on twitter brings up the odd putdown, which, in its own way, is refreshing to see also.

Given your reputation as a dynamic live band, does studio recording come as a hindrance in any way?

Not at all. Sam owns Blank Studios here in Newcastle and he designed and built the space himself which makes recording a lot less stressful and a lot more enjoyable. Playing live is a different beast: in a lot of ways it’s the most enjoyable part of Pigs, but after a long period of writing and gigging, getting into the studio is refreshing...

Read interview and listen to playlist by Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs for Fred Perry

It says:

Name, where are you from? 
Adam Ian Sykes of Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs. We’re from Newcastle Upon Tyne. Home of Mark Knoplfer and unfortunately, Sting.

Describe your style in three words? 
Monotonous, monotonous, monotonous.

What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to? 
It may have to be either Oren Ambarchi or an Earth show, mantric like no-one else.

If you could be on the line up with any two bands in history? 
Playing with Earth would be nice. And, my God is it cliché but Hendrix would be even nicer.

Which subcultures have influenced you? 
I guess, because of the music we make and the biggest influences on that, it would have to be heavy metal. Especially given that it’s such a broad subculture and one that, arguably blurs into Punk.

If you could spend an hour with anyone from history? 
Alice Coltrane, from both a musical perspective and a spiritual one.

Of all the venues you’ve played, which is your favourite? 
It would likely be Vera in Groningen. A beautiful venue, flexible in size and with an amazing candle-lit bar downstairs built into what feels like a cave. It’s volunteer run and the staff couldn’t be more friendly or attentive...
