Pignition taste like a f***ing strong coffee full of sugar.
We created this band to make music and have fun. By now that's what we did.

Why this name?
Because the mixing the words Pig and Ignition is possible.
Do you play live?
We made about 30 gigs. On stage we are trying to do what we would like to see : ENERGY and HONESTY.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
May be internet allows band to promote and sell their own music. It will help to enlarge the network between musicians. But internet dosen't gives the money to all the bands to record in good condition or buying good material. Finaly, I really don't know if it will brings more sh*** to the top or if it will change the MTV landscape.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
No major asked us to sign. So I could say something like "F*** no, I would definitly send them in hell with their f***ing dirty money" but I would lie. Who can be sure that he wouldn't sell his artistic freedom(for one or two album at least)in exchange of being sure that he will eat for a while. May be I could say no, May be not.
Band History:
1999: First try. Cute but hopeless.
2000: New line up. Much better. Addicted drummer
2001: Drummer gone. New f***ing good drummer and bassist. One demo, with the quality of an underglass.
2002: Many gigs. One demo, much better than the last one and nearly 150 sold. OK, it's not huge but we wouldn't have sold millions of 4 songs demo recorded in a garage ( Or it would have been VERY VERY impressive).
2003: More gigs than the year before.
2004: And more gigs than the year before...Untill an argument with the drummer.
2005: New drummer, same bassiste. New songs, new energy. More sweat, more power, more true feelings inside the music and more sweetness after and behind the screams.
2006: We got a new demo and we planning a lot of concerts.

Your influences?
we like Nirvana but now it's nearly not in the music. It's up to you to say what this music looks like but I would say it's rock-metal-pop.
We like Deftones(&co), P.J Harvey, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Tori Amos, The Melvins, Faith No More, Pink Floyd, And the B;;link 182 album out in 2005 (Yeah, sometimes a comercial band can make good things). For us, commercial or not is not important. The important thing is : If it gives us adrenaline, it's OK.
