the Extra Longpigsin – a truly intriguing addition to the Longpigs discography.
This album is a rollercoaster of eclectic sounds and quirky lyrics that will leave you scratching your head in both confusion and delight.
From the opening track, "Piggy Parade," it's clear that Longpigs are not afraid to take risks and experiment with their music.
The combination of jangly guitars, off-kilter percussion, and lead singer Pete's distinctive vocals create a sonically rich tapestry that is both captivating and slightly unnerving.
Tracks like "Sausage Symphony" and "Bacon Blues" showcase Longpigs' playful approach to songwriting, with wry observations about life, love, and pork products woven throughout.
The band's knack for catchy hooks and infectious melodies is on full display here, making it impossible to resist tapping your foot along to the beat.
However, the album does have its missteps.
"Ham Hock Hoedown" feels disjointed and over-ambitious, lacking the cohesiveness that makes the rest of the album so compelling.
And while "Pork Chop Lullaby" is undeniably haunting, its repetitive structure can start to grate after a few listens.
Overall, Longpigs' Extra Longpigsin is a bold and creative offering that showcases the band's unique blend of humour and musical talent.
While it may not be to everyone's taste, those willing to dive in head first will be rewarded with a truly unforgettable listening experience.
