Pigs Of The Roman Empire is a 2004 collaborative album between Melvins and Brian Williams, who is better known as Lustmord. This was released through Ipecac.

Chronicles the reign of Commodus, the emperor whose rule marked the beginning of Rome's fall.
An academic and graphic account of the rule of the famously narcissistic Roman Emperor Commodus, who inherited the Roman Empire from his father, Marcus Aurelius, at the height of its expansion in the second century AD, told over a backdrop of violence, sex, and corruption.

Its army dominated the known world. Its culture forms the heart of Western Civilization. At its zenith, the Roman Empire extended from Persia to England, the Black Sea to the Atlantic Ocean. And throughout its history, its fate rested in the hands of individuals men of genius and courage, madness and ambition.
