Wayne Static

Musician

Wayne Static (born Wayne Richard Wells) was an American musician best known as the frontman of Static‑X and for his 2011 solo album Pighammer. He was a central figure in an industrial/nu‑metal sound associated with Static‑X.

Frontman of Static‑X; released solo album Pighammer; associated studio albums with Static‑X include Wisconsin Death Trip, Machine, Shadow Zone, Start a War, Cannibal, Cult of Static. Died in 2014.

The available review treats Pighammer as a modest, partly successful solo effort that recovers from the weaker Cult of Static. Fans will find moments to enjoy; critics may remain unconvinced. The overall verdict is cautiously positive but mixed.

For:Fans of Static-X, listeners of industrial/nu metal, readers seeking critical takes on solo projects

 

In conclusion, "Pighammer" is an "almost sufficient" release or just slightly more, which is enjoyable to listen to but does not completely convince; for me, this album is not to be "doomed to oblivion" as others have defined it, but it is just the beginning of a laborious comeback that Wayne has to implement.
