Artist
There are several bands called HOGG 1-) Hogg is an experimental performance duo that sounds like a conglomerate of hardcore, industrial, and noise. Emma Sims and Hanna Elliott both from Atlanta, GA now residing in Chicago, IL started performing HOGG in 2014. The duo take inspiration from artists such as David Wojnorowicz, Lee Lozano, Chris Burden, and Paul Mccarthy. The title of the group refers to the Samuel Delaney book titled 'Hogg,' which revolves around the perspective of a young boy who engages in sexual acts with a degenerate trucker who works with a gang of rapists. The performance and music act as an aggressive and absurd response to the extreme states being: love, sex, death, birth, violence. The absurdity in the content spawns from a hysterical feeling of futility and helplessness to the destructive quality of human nature. The content of the music revolves around subliminal manipulation, capitalism, spirituality, sex, chauvinism, symbolism, existentialism, and nihilism. Their first release was a tape put out and mastered in 2015 by NihilistRecords, run by Andy Ortmann of Panicsville . https://nihilistrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/bury-the-dog-deeper-nihil-80 2-) Hogg is a 4-piece Heavy Rock/Stoner band from Thessaloniki, Greece. The current line-up consists of George Cobas (vocals), Babis (Guitars), Panos (Bass) and Apostolis (Drums). The band first got together by Babis and their ex-drummer Billy in early 2009, to originally work on some ideas they had. Aft
