Pigface

Pigface is an American industrial rock supergroup formed in 1990 by Martin Atkins and William Rieflin.

==History== Pigface was formed from Ministry's The Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Taste tour, which produced the ''In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up'' live album and video. For the tour, Al Jourgensen recruited musicians such as Nivek Ogre and Chris Connelly to join the lineup. Also joining was drummer Martin Atkins, to play alongside Bill Rieflin, then Ministry's regular drummer. Atkins later stated that while he enjoyed performing with a second drummer, he felt the lineup was capable of more than functioning as what he has described as "a Ministry cover band." After the tour, Atkins and Rieflin decided to continue working together and invited several of their tourmates to join. This led to the formation of Pigface, conceived as a revolving-door collaboration with various experimentally minded musicians, many of whom, especially in the early years, had also recorded for the influential industrial label Wax Trax! Records. Rieflin left the band after the first tour, leaving Atkins as the sole founder of the group.
