Pigface: Glitch poster
NR

Pigface live 90-92, an hour long video features live performances from over 15 shows plus an exclusive look behind the scenes: backstage, on the bus, and in the studio. It's an amazing spectacle of late 80's/early 90's indie-music icons. KMFDM's En Esch, Ministry's Chris Connelly, Nine Inch Nails creator Trent Reznor, Nivek Ogre (Skinny Puppy), William Tucker (RIP), Raven (Prong/Killing Joke), Andrew Weiss (Rollins Band/Ween), and leader-slash-drummer Martin Atkins (Public Image Ltd./Ministry/Killing Joke) keep this video spinning with their over-the-top antics and Spinal Tap-ish tour foibles. This should be in your video collection between the Who's ""The Kid's Are Alright"" and Dave Markey's ""1991: The Year Punk Broke.
