Warpig


Canadian 70's heavy prog band Warpig came from Woodstock, Ontario.Surprisingly enough they didn't sound like any of the typical 70's Canadian bands at the time like April Wine,Rush etc. The sound they had was much more British sounding.Very much along the lines of Black Sabbath,Deep Purple and Uriah Heep.The self-titled Warpig album originally came out in Spring of 1973 and was re-issued in 2006 on cd & 12" vinyl fully re-mastered with extended liner notes! Here we are now 30 plus years later and the songs still keep their unique flavor of 70's hard psych proto-metal.Warpig has also been busy since the re-issue of their album making the long awaited second album entitled "that pillar of fire".With that being said anyone interested in reading more on the band you can visit the official website http://www.warpig.ca/index.php
