Stuck Mojo - Pigwalk (30th Anniversary Edition) [CD]

Thirty years after it's original release, Pigwalk remains one of the most important and influential albums in the history of rap-metal. Released in 1996, the album arrived before the genre exploded into the mainstream and helped establish Stuck Mojo as one of it's earliest innovators. Combining crushing groove metal riffs, hardcore aggression, and rhythmic vocal delivery, the band forged a sound that was both groundbreaking and unmistakably heavy.

Produced by Devin Townsend, Pigwalk captures Stuck Mojo at a creative peak. Tracks such as "(Here Comes) The Monster," "Mental Melt Down," and "Only The Strong Survive" showcase the band's ability to balance power, groove, attitude, and memorable songwriting without sacrificing intensity. The album helped bridge the gap between traditional groove metal and the rap-metal movement that would dominate heavy music in the years that followed. Over the past three decades, Pigwalk has earned it's reputation as a cult classic and a cornerstone release for fans of aggressive, forward-thinking metal. It's influence can be heard throughout generations of bands that embraced the fusion of heavy riffs, rhythmic vocals, and crossover energy. Few albums from the era have maintained their relevance and impact as successfully as Pigwalk. This 30th Anniversary Edition from Brutal Planet Records and Limited Run Vinyl marks the first time Pigwalk has ever been pressed on vinyl in the United States. Officially licensed from Century Media Records, the release is pressed on Emerald Green Swirl vinyl and includes a full-size 12" x 12" insert. Limited to just 500 copies worldwide, it gives longtime fans and vinyl collectors the opportunity to own a landmark metal release in a premium format worthy of it's legacy. For fans of Rage Against the Machine, Biohazard, Machine Head, and early Limp Bizkit!
