Pig Destroyer was formed by guitarist Scott Hull aside from his other
major grindcore band Agoraphobic Nosebleed. The reason for forming Pig
Destroyer is to bring back what "grindcore should be". The explanation
behind the name of the band was a story in which the members were
waiting in line to go on a roller coaster when they were thinking of the
"most absurd punk rock name they could come imagine." They thought of
Cop Killer and Cop Destroyer, but then thought of Pig Destroyer; a
less-obvious name than the other two. At the time they were more
political and it made the most sense to them, but now they claim it's
just the name of the band. For a very long period of time, Pig Destroyer
never had a bass player, nor did they use bass in their music. They
went without a bass player in their entire career up until October of
2013 where John Jarvis was incepted into the band. Before 2013, the only
ever exception was the recording of a live gig with a bass player for
the bonus part of their song "Terrifyer". Contrary to popular belief,
Scott Hull did not collaborate with Tribes of Neurot on the album
"Static Migration" under the pseudonym "Walking Time Bombs", this
pseudonym was used by Pain Teens guitarist Scott Ayers. Shortly before
Pig Destroyer formed, JR Hayes and Scott Hull were in the band Treblinka
together - the lineup completed by Mason (Enemy Soil), Jeff Kane (City
of Caterpillar), and Eric Kane (Strike Anywhere). They played one show
at Club Soda (Washington DC) in 1997 opening for Assuck before splitting
up.
