Wayne Static - Pighammer

 

Picture
Wayne Static - Pighammer - Dirthouse

By Jeffrey Easton

When a sickly twisted mind becomes sober, who knows what will happen but I do, it writes Pighammer.  Wayne Static is the consummate metal proliferator, he writes sickening ryhthms, the riffs crush the cranium and his lyrics make you think “What did he say?”..  That being said, Wayne’s first solo record, Pighammer, is a blistering set of metal that he was destined to make.  Breaking away from his name sake Static X, Wayne has dove even deeper into his demented head to come up correct with an album that burns into his soul.  Assassins Of Youth is a look into his drug abuse, a dark hard look and as he has overcome it, the words will sting those still deep into that endless rut. Around The Turn is an anthem, a dark hard driving monster of a song that will find you doing 90 mph….  Static Killer turns the corner into the filth of the mind, something I know he is well capable of. Get It Together is another inferno that sees the emergence from the drug abuse that plagued his life as well as the haunting track Slave.  This is a real break for Wayne and a chance to do something different.  Pighammer is truly a dark record and will convert even the most jaded of rock fan.
