You Know You Know You Know (4:18)Ah, the obligatory 'best of' album! Chances are you've sampled something from, but perhaps not something from each era of, Pigface's decade deep oeuvre. The history of Pigface is inextricably tied to drummer / ringleader / Invisible Records head honcho Martin Atkins with some 100+ members (as listed in the insert) having passed through the revolving door. The talent amassed on stage and in the studio is staggering and includes most everyone in the rock and 'industrial' rock underground. The musical result is varied and impossible to pigeonhole, taking in elements of punk, funk, noise, dance, etc. Disc 1 collects 20 (!) re-edited, re-mastered tracks representing the 4 studio albums, emphasis on "Fook" and "Notes From the Underground", and a few of the remix/live EPs and albums. The editing merely tightens up everything for maximum disc capacity and the remastered sound is most clearly evident on the most dated studio material, "Suck" and "Point Blank" from "Gub". It all sounds great and flows well through the years with fine track selection courtesy of fan submissions. Disc 2 is the real incentive for long time fans with 9 of the 15 tracks being previously unreleased nuggets: brief interviews (Atkins, Ogre, William Tucker), songs either aborted or in an infant form ("Dribble", parts of which became "Empathy", "Taiko" which became "Asphole"), re-mixes (including new versions of "Chickasuarus" and "Hips, Tits, Lips, Power"), and an amusing radio ID. These include Dirk Flanigan, Astrid Welz, Jim Marcus, Andrew Weiss/Ween, Black Francis and Robert Santiago of The Pixies ... some accomplished pieces and others spontaneous, fun and loose jams. "Preaching to the Perverted" does just that but does it with style ...
