Raymond Watts has been a pivotal figure in industrial music since the 1980s, and he wants to spend Devil’s Night with you, Orlando.
Watts has done it all during his decades reveling in the filth of the underground — musical and otherwise — whether as a key early member of KMFDM, sharing stages with Einstürzende Neubauten and Foetus, providing sonics for Alexander McQueen, or influencing a young and impressionable Trent Reznor.
But it’s solo venture Pig that’s Watts’ true passion project. Whether you know them from early albums like Wax Trax release A Poke in the Eye or the mainstream-scraping 1994 album Sinsation, it’s time to welcome new Pigmusick into your life. The latest mini-album, Feast of Agony, hit the streets in late September and now Watts is doing the full Dorian Gray, musically and otherwise, on stages across the country.
It’s fittingly apocalyptic that he’s playing here this week.
