Boss Hog  >>

This is about as close to the blues as punk rock gets, and it ain't pretty. That's probably a given with Jon Spencer strangling yelps and moans from his six-string thing and belting away in that over-the-top shout of his. His partner in crime, singer Cristina Martinez, howls along in a desperate croon that suggests Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon but is far more dangerous. This whole mess, in fact, is a careening, drunken/stoned, stumbling trip through some of the seediest musical territory you'll encounter on a major label. Boss Hog bastardize and incorporate a miasma of blues-related styles, ranging from R&B to rap to some dirty-ass funk, and always sound as if they're having a ball doing it.

Boss Hog are sleazy, sexy, debauched, and entirely raunchy, and we're not necessarily talking about the lyrics. While their sound is similar in certain aspects to Spencer's own Blues Explosion records (minimal, raw, and very analog), the extra dimension added by Martinez's voice effectively distinguishes the two bands. Fans of the Blues Explosion are likely to enjoy this album, as is anyone who likes really nasty, bluesy punk. --Adem Tepedelen

Every Hog Has Its Day  >>

If you feel froggish, then leap. But if you feel hoggish, then creep! It was inevitable. After the success of “Eatadiccup” & “$poiled Rotten” from J-Zone’s last two albums, folks started talkin’... “J-Zone and Celph Titled need to do an album together”. Say no more, the Hogs are here. As a group, J-Zone and Celph Titled (aka Kenny Hoggins and Wade Hoggs) are the Bo$$ Hog Barbarian$. The two multi-talented beatsmiths/rappers /entertainers / masters of all that is rude are in the house for a full length ride. Enter Hog Heaven, where the order of the day is foul mouthed trash talk, funkafied beats and a sense of humor, to the 50th power. With nearly all production by J-Zone and Celph Titled, the lone outside beat comes from none other than the legendary Mr. Walt of Da Beatminerz’, longtime Hog affiliates. On the rapping side? No guests!! Hogs don’t need em. Celph and Zone are the Jordan and Pippen of Hog Heaven, so no help is necessary. 100% pure unadulterated hoggin’. With Zone having produced for the likes of Biz Markie,Casual, Devin the Dude, Del, 7L & Esoteric, Tha Alkaholiks, King T and many more and Celph collaborating with everybody from 45 King, to Mike Shinoda (of Linkin Park), to Redman & Fabolous, the hogs are heavyweights. Brought to you by Mt. Kill-A-Ho / Hog Cabin Ent., the official Bo$$ Hog Barbarian$ record label. With the single, “$teady $mobbin’” b/w “Celph Destruction”, and the MP3 leak, “Hog Luv”, already makin noise, this album will Hog your arteries. You’ve been warned... they won’t stop hoggin’ nooooo!
