Pig Destroyer - Natasha (Mean Street - November 2008)
PIG DESTROYER
Natasha
(Relapse)
Release date: Nov. 11
This tune was originally available as a bonus DVD Audio to ’04’s Terrifyer album, but is now available as its own standalone release. Natasha is a one-song, 35-minute epic that plays like a soundtrack to a slasher flick. The band created a slowed down, doom-filled masterpiece that falls somewhere between Godflesh, the Melvins and Neurosis, with horror-movie samples, synth melodies and ambient parts. Longtime fans may be thrown off by the lack of their familiar grindcore ways, Natasha still brings out the brutality in many other ways. The gradual buildup throughout the track is quite immense, as the slow grinding behind the low end heaviness is felt throughout the entire tune. Natasha may not be for everyone, but fans of doom should give this one a test drive.
