Furious Pig was a group that emerged out of the High School experiences of a group of friends and relations in Totnes, a little town in South Devon, England. Influenced by listening to an eclectic mix of early Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart, The Beatles, Ethiopian Polyphonic chants, The Doors, Stravinsky and Edgar Varese, among other things, they developed a form of intense acapella vocal chanting, highly orchestrated with choreographed passages. It became a cult sensation on the London and N.European club sceneTheir session on Radio 1 DJ John Peels show so divided the listenership between those who loved and those who loathed the music that it was repeated in record time. Theyd spend 8 hours a day for months working on extending our vocal ranges, often in grotesque and hilarious ways.
