Release Notes:

Inhuman. Merciless. Uncompromising. San Francisco's heaviest quartet return with
their sophomore album, The 12 Gauge Solution. Often praised for their original
and uneasily characterized sound, BLESSING THE HOGS forge a style of heavy music
all their own. Punishing vo-kills, rapid-fire drums and dropped tuned fucking
mayhem - all the key ingredients that Blessing The Hogs are known for - show up
in spades this time around. Featuring Billy Anderson (studio wizard who has
worked with the likes of MELVINS, MR. BUNGLE, BRUTAL TRUTH, HIGH ON FIRE,
FANTOMAS, KISS IT GOODBYE, NEUROSIS, EYEHATEGOD, UNSANE, SICK OF IT ALL, and
many more) among their lineup, BLESSING THE HOGS show no sign of relenting on
their musical quest. Recorded by Billy at Take Root Studios, San Francisco and
Oakland's Sharkbite Studios and mixed at Trax East by Eric Rachel, The 12 Gauge
Solution features eleven new songs. Also included are two covers (Quickand's
'Fazer' and the Melvins' Hog Leg) featuring guest lead vocals by Sean Ingram of
Coalesce that must be heard to be believed.
