Notability edit
Meets criteria 4 of WP:MUSIC, an early and influential member of Mordam Records's early roster. Their allmusic.com entry begins "Rising out of the dust of El Paso, TX, in 1983, the Rhythm Pigs ground through a whole crop of shows across the U.S. and Europe in the mid-'80s, which helped build on the regional notoriety..."

- WP:MUSIC #5. "Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable)." Their label Mordam Records which released their first two albums, has also released albums by Faith No More, Negativland, and Victim's Family.. I think that demonstrates they meet, at least, criterion 5. Pete.Hurd (talk) 22:21, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
- WP:MUSIC #6. "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable;". Kenny Craun's membership in both this band and Beefeater meets criterion 6. Pete.Hurd (talk) 22:32, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
