Classic 90's show activity in this vid. Harshly lit room. A stripped shirt. No bass player. Poorly attended. Kick Drum has to be pushed back every other song. People wearing Backpacks. Friends making unfunny / inside jokes between songs. Etc. CLASSIC. This is nostalgic for me. lol
How many people in that audience do you think realized this band would go on to be one of the more important and better bands of the grind/HC/metal scene over the next 20 years? (or am I the only one who holds them in that high regard?)
It's not even a joke; these guys were pros right from the start. The golf course clapping at song end is a great unintended effect emphasizing the brutally of the band's sound.
I hope I meet an extreme metalhead one day, having them as a friend is a gift beyond words. Sharing shit like this, and having the same level of appreciation and joy towards the aggression is incredible. Deep down I love all music genres, but sorry not sorry, Metal is supreme. True expression, can’t be beaten.
@@half-assedgaming2249 Agreed friend! Sometimes bands take multiple influences, and they lean more one way than the other. I found an awesome band called Rupture, you should check em out, also Discharge.

Dudes blasting so hard he needs another dude to keep his kick drum from escaping. Fucking brutal. I can smell this scene. I played my fair share of gigs just like this. Those were definitely the good ol days. Music came first. I miss it. So cool to watch this.
Somebody uploaded footage from this show from another angle, but was in worse quality. The date in the title in the video I'm speaking of is November 22nd, 1997 and for some reason it says they performed at "Monkey Fest". Anyways, The quality here is pretty good for 97, and man, JR was a beast.
It's videos like this that make me pause to consider whether the internet really is just a festering cesspool of garbage that needs to be wiped out of existence. This rules.
If you stay off social media and dont let youtube "force you" to watch dave grohl talk about himself because you clicked "like" on a melvins video, it's actually pretty cool
HOLY SHIT! They're were destroying shit even as kids. Fucking impressive! And unlike most other bands that stick together they still sound as hard as ever!
This was very typical in the PHILLY/PA New Jersey Hardcore/Screamo scene. They were good for kids no doubt but there were better more progressive HC bands with 16 year old kids. This guy sounds like he was influenced vocally by bands like my friends Frail and Iconoclast. Good band though!
I think the set list at my band's first show was: She Sells Sanctuary Gloria - sort of a Doors hybrid punk thing (which wasn't that bad) 3 original songs that sounded like the Ramones or Misfits or Minor Threat and Sunshine of Your Love - which was really just a cover of a cover of Fudge Tunnel's version and it was nothing like this. It was terrible. Embarrassing.

Aw Piglet Destroyer. They’re so young!
Lol nice
😂
3 Little Pigs
😂
Excellent 😂
This is beautiful. This is art.
You're right, Jennifer.
I really really obsessed with pig destroyer
Same, almost 4 years and counting since I've been in love with the band and just now I'm getting merch and CDs from them.
Dude where do you get merch from them? I want a t shirt so bad. I'd love to find one with the phantom limb cover art on it
Me too fam me too
Been my favorite band ever since I ran across them. So fucking good
tracklist?
5:22 not all hero wear capes
Pig Destroyer: ''AAAAAAAAAAAARGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH''
Bass players:
Nice. Lol
Ahahahaha
As someone who likes bass is actually like Pig Destroyer as Scott does a good job getting a thick bass like sound out of his guitar.
They have one now!
I can't believe this video even exists
And we can thank whoever recorded it! How fucking dope is this?
Phones were big ass in those days, whoever filmed it had arms of steel
@@trefwoordpunk2225 Phones? Those were câmeras dude

Nope you are completely correct. So many biters to follow.
@Tony Glock They play too many metal riffs to ever just be punk rock.
@Tony Glock 00q
I love their stuff up to Phantom Limb. Their new stuff just doesn't do it for me anymore. Just a different sound I guess. This is still cool to watch.
One of the OG's of grind for sure!!
It's not even a joke; these guys were pros right from the start. The golf course clapping at song end is a great unintended effect emphasizing the brutally of the band's sound.
right? lol theres no mosh just standing and clapping
This unironically belongs in the library of congress

@@roboroborangutan ho crap you're right hahaha
I didn't even notice
this is really a treat to get to see. JR's vocals are so raw and young.
Agreed. Its too bad his vocals aren't nearly as good now.
@@markkevorkianWell shit, could anyone’s vocals be good after performing like this?!
If only Scott's shirt was bigger...
big shirt, bigger loser
@@tomg4685 it’s an anal cunt song
but then it would be a dress

At 00:12 : "John I can learn your bass part real fast" killed me
And that person might be their current bassist now lol
for real
They had their sound nailed from the beginning, JR and Scott were amazing from day one obviously. 🤘
yeah this is sick.
Goddamn they look like kids here. And JR's vocals were still amazing at this point.
they _were_ kids then.
@@yomuthabyotch I wouldn't say Scott was, because he was 26 here
@@yomuthabyotch lol yea and JR was 21
Such a tight and precise performance. Even in the early days, they were cohesive and played perfectly. This is incredible!

if this was on that date then J.R. was 23 years old in this video and Scott was 26
fuck they were young as shit
@@jaghall47 Yeah I agree, but from PxDx's formation to Terrifyer was when he was in his prime.
@@MisterAutist I totally agree....however Octagonal Stairway is definitely their prime revival.

@@fuckcensorship69Lovely username
I think we found Waldo.
2:43 JR wanted to spit, but even he didn't find that appropriate in a church basement.
Man, JR and Scott look so young in this compared to now. They had baby faces back then and now they look like somebodys dad
I guess I always assumed Scott Hull was born a fully grown man
03:45 unsung hero
Wohhhh this is mental... PD raw as fcuk.... tinnitus central though Im afraid after 🤘🤘
It's at this point you may have been able to stop a potential serial killer...
Oh, so they were always fucking amazing. Good to know.
Damn imagine being there when 2:25 hit
i gotta show this to my friend tanner
who tf is this good at their first show!!
I feel something pressing against my kidneys. Maybe a pair of wings...maybe the ghost of a bullet
Holy shit this is actually really fucking good 😂😂😂 love Pig Destroyer just ordered a Prowler in the Yard t shirt
This is fucking gold, thanks for the upload bruh. Hail Pig Destroyer
HOLY SHIT! They're were destroying shit even as kids. Fucking impressive! And unlike most other bands that stick together they still sound as hard as ever!

Jesus, Scott Hull looks young as hell!
Beautiful
what a badass vocal holishit
i love how they just ignore their annoying friends in the crowd
I think the set list at my band's first show was:
She Sells Sanctuary
Gloria - sort of a Doors hybrid punk thing (which wasn't that bad)
3 original songs that sounded like the Ramones or Misfits or Minor Threat
and Sunshine of Your Love - which was really just a cover of a cover of Fudge Tunnel's version
and it was nothing like this.
It was terrible.
Embarrassing.
Doors hybrid punk sounds tight
Pig Destroyer someday come to Mexico?? JR Hayes and Scot Hull are a Beast!
Scott looks like he's 14 in this video. 😂
I'm sure the drummer was like 14 or 15
This is every show in the early 00's.
AWSESOME raw video footage.
Through a fender speaker, nice 😎
this is too fuckkin' awesome, I'll always love PxDx but I do miss three piece Pig Destoyer
they're such cute little kids back then!
that audience had no idea this band would write prowler in the yard and become one of grinds most important bands
Gotta thank my buddy Frank for introducing me to this band back in college
Esto me recuerda muchas tocatas las cuales fui y vi bandas cuando recién empezaron. Ojalá todas esas bandas fueran como pig destroyer.
One of my all time favorite bands!🤘🏼🤘🏼
Bad brains sailin on - 7:45
That Cattle Press tee 😍
Is there such thing as a set list for this show?

6:14 - Seven and Thirteen

@@superzilla11 thanx
Насонов Денис дядя, ты крутой!
this is amazing
This is awesome. Somebody give that drummer a cinder block for crying out loud.
King shit, and that cattle press long print shirt. goddamn
I love this.
Love it from Australia
3:16 one of my favorites
We had a 16-32 kg kettlebell put in our bass drum. You don't do that in the U.S.?
The only sticker I can make out on John's bass drum is Assück. Anybody know what happened to him? Seemed like a true grind freak.
Scott orders his hair doo. Always has. Always will
Badass, ty!!!
Caralho que banda foda nessa época os caras já arrebentava tudo congratulations meu cérebro agradece muito 👏😎🤘🎸🎤🇧🇷🧠
If anyone can tell me what pedal he use i'd be really happy.
Is it just the good old hm2?
Idk what he used in this particular show, but he used an Amptweker Tight Metal Pro distortion for a long time
That’s the foot switch to the amp on the floor so I’m guessing the distortion is all amp.
Mesa Boogie amp fuzzy channel
That singer looks the exact same today haha classic
And born a legend...
Scott used that black SG for a while didn't he?
He used it when he was in Anal Cunt and I think also Agoraphobic Nosebleed in the 90s
I'd say till 2001 when he switched to 7-string guitars
Scott is 26 here but looks like hes 12
wanna know the story behind "rodbusters!!!"
Mesa Boogie Mark III spotted
do they know they are facing the wrong direction?
Indubitably
The 7:49 song is a sailing on cover of bad brains no?
❤❤❤
What shirt is Jr wearing looks badass
Looks like it says cattle press
@Christopher Nelson thank you sorry for the late response
@@txjxmx thank you
Holy shit! There just kids!!!
When I saw the thumbnail pic, I thought it was a joke. Well I’m glad I was mistaken
3:20 Lol
Bet he never did a show without carpet under that kit again.. lmao. Been there.
Is this really a first show from pig destroyer
Fantastisch!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
awwwwww look at the little NSA cog in his big striped shirt
This is fuckin lit
Imagine he broke the mic every show.
3:15
How old are they
i believe they are in their early to mid 20s
They all look 13 here
scott is 26 here, JR is 23 and idk how old john is.
This makes quarantine so fucking unbearable! I want to go to a show dammit! Fuck off pandemic!
They look 12!
what kind of nike shoes is J.R. wearing?
PIONEERS!
this is at george washington university
Cattlepress!
