Pig Destroyer have entered the studio to begin work on their next full length. The album, in what is almost certainly not a Venture Bros. reference, has been titled Phantom Limb.The album will feature fourteen new songs including “Cemetery Road”, “Rotten Yellow”, “Jupiter’s Eye” “Heathen Temple” and “The Machete Twins.”Vocalist JR Hayes commented on the recording:

We're recording to 2-inch analog tape, which is really exciting. The drums sound huge, and the guitar tones are really nasty and aggressive. Brian's been on top of his game all year, busting out easily the fastest blast beats I've ever seen him play. As usual, Scott's written a whole arsenal of scalding riffs, but I feel like he really outdid himself with the arrangements on this record. The songs feel great and we've been having a load of fun playing them for the last five months. It's the 14 most deranged metal songs we could make up, so get ready to sink your f*cking teeth in.

The band's previous album, Terrifyer, was ranked among the best albums of 2004 by Punknews.org
