26 Mar 2009 hogs.jpgWhat a craaaaaazy past year it's been. You guys thought the Hogs were just cooling off but really we've been locked away in the pig pen perfecting the ultimate combination of vocals, guitar, bass, trumpet, trombone and drums. After months and months of intensive song-writing and recording we are proud to announce that a fresh batch of the piping-hot soon-to-be-released 14-track album, Method to the Madness, has arrived at Hog HQ. And we're even more proud to say that it's by far the greatest concoction of Hog Mayhem ever conceived.

You can hear 4 of our new tracks on our facebook fanpage

We're in post-production for the Music Video of our single Sherry Ann, The video was directed by Glob, Shot by Dave Aenmey and animated by our very own Amos Skeeto. The video was shot in front of green screen at Tabletop Studios with the support of Condor Cape and is set in a full CG environment. It's a mix of secret laboratories, high-tech experimentation and dirty medicine.  Here's a sneak preview...

 

Our website is back online after a little summer hibernation and it's had a sweet little overhaul. Check it out at:

Thanks to everyone that came and supporting us at Ramfest. It was an amazing festival and special thanks to Dawid and his team from Audiomatik for putting it together. We had a rocking time...

Yours in swine,
