Hailing from Newcastle, Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs have released a new single, "Mr Medicine." This one is a little heavier than we typically cover, but we obviously can't resist the band name, and "Mr Medicine" turns out to be a killer hard rocker. This is definitely more hard rock than metal, but it's at the very least metal adjacent. It has that dark sound of early metal that you would get with Black Sabbath, and the groove of a band like Queens of the Stone Age. Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs are the kind of hard rock that metal die hards and casual fans are both going to love.

Vocalist Matt Baty says of the new song:

“Music is a powerful medicine and it should be consumed daily for mental wellbeing. Mr Medicine's faithful and highly regarded colleague is Doctor Gig, who we also have on speed dial. Lyrically I suppose the sentiment is not too dissimilar to Sister Sledge ‘Lost In Music’, only galvanised by heavy, heavy doses of distortion and really big drum fills.”

You can watch the video for "Mr Medicine" below. Land of Sleeper is due out February 17 on Rocket Recordings. The album can be pre-ordered here. For more on Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs, check out the band's website.
