"We Are the Pigs" is the first single from the album Dog Man Star by British band Suede, released on 12 September 1994 through Nude Records.

The single heralded the darker tone that the band had taken for Dog Man Star, which contrasted heavily with their debut album.

The video for the B-side, "Killing of a Flash Boy", a specially commissioned backdrop film for the Dog Man Star tour, produced by Derek Jarman was shot in Nightingale Estate in Hackney.

David Sinclair of The Times wrote: "Propelled by one of Bernard Butler's finest riff chord sequences and fuelled by the nightmare visions of Brett Anderson's lyric, the song romps home with a glorious chorus that combines old-fashioned sing-a-long appeal with an intriguingly sinister edge.

However, she was very favourable saying: "It's a typically melodramatic affair, Butler's squawking playing counterpointed by Brett Anderson's breastbeating emoting.

'We Are the Pigs' is just the ticket, one of their very best, strident, anthemic singles, which neatly sets the tone for the equally stunning second album on October 10.
