UK: mordam records / 1986

+ printed inner sleeve. 1993 CD on Mordam compiles the first two LPs.

Even though their achievements have been a bit overshadowed by Nomeansno (who had a similarly eclectic approach to hardcore), the Rhythm Pigs were one of the most diverse & sophisticated hardcore bands of the late 80s. Experimental, but still listenable and melodic hardcore, complex but powerful. Great. [10]  

Genialer, ungemein abwechslungsreicher HC mit unzähligen Ideen, toll gespielt und sauber produziert; was will man mehr. Obwohl an vielen Stellen experimentiert wird, verliert die Musik nie an Drive oder Melodie, was diese LP auch für ’konservativere’ Hörer zu einem Genuß macht.

Tracks: conditional love / dr harley / break new ground / human drama / six / machines are in / peanuts / break or we’ll break your face // taxi cab / searching for myself / conscience song / electric world / road machine
