Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs share filthily groovy new single Ultimate Hammer, announce 2023 touring plans
Listen to Ultimate Hammer, single two from Pigs X 7’s upcoming Land of Sleeper album
Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs have released thunderous new single Ultimate Hammer, and announced extensive tour details for the year ahead.
The single comes from the Geordie collective’s forthcoming fourth record, Land of Sleeper, which is set for release on Rocket Recordings on February 17.
Speaking about the single, guitarist Adam Ian Sykes says: “Ultimate Hammer is the by-product of being trapped in the house and listening to too much ZZ Top, if there is such a thing. It was written to be unapologetic, a selfish endeavour with the only consideration being how fun it would be to play live.”
