Pig Destroyer is an American grindcore band formed in 1997 in Alexandria, Virginia. The band was formed by vocalist J. R. Hayes, guitarist Scott Hull and drummer John Evans. Pig Destroyer is one of the most well-known grindcore bands due to Hayes' poetic lyrics,[1] Hull's incorporation of thrash metal, doom metal and punk influences in songwriting, and Evans' technical drum work.
