Day 451 - One Bad Pig - Bowl of Wrath

451. One Bad Pig - Bowl of Wrath
from the Album Swine Flew
(Myrrh, 1990)

"One Bad Pig are a bubbling cauldron of fun. They were typically classified as a punk band, but really their music was a mish-mash of punk, funk, rock and thrash, all rolled into one Sunday School class for juvenile delinquents. No doubt the lyrical themes were all patently Christian, but these guys made learning your Sunday School lessons fun and entertaining. They could take serious topics like the wrath of God, and add some humor to it to bring home the message, without actually diluting the message. Bowl of Wrath, Breakfast on the crooked path! If you choose to laugh, you can have another 'Bowl of Wrath!' Gotta love it! At the same time, they could bring me to my knees in worship like no other band with songs like When Your Love Died and Red River, the later sounding more like a U2 song than anything by a punk band. There is even a thrashing version of Petra's Judas' Kiss featuring a guest performance by Petra guitarist Bob Hartman. One other note about this album is that it was one of the first 'heavy' bands to ever be released on Myrrh Records, a label more known for acts like Amy Grant. (Source: )
