Exasperated by the pandemic, the hopelessness of climate change, the cattle shoot of global capitalism, and fueled by “...lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of THC,” God’s Country is as much of an acknowledgement of the Earth’s most assured demise as it is a snarling violent act of defiance against it. Within its over 40 minute runtime, God’s Country displays both Chat Pile’s most aggressively unhinged and contemplatively nuanced moments to date, drawing from its preceding two EPs and its score for the 2021 film, Tenkiller. In the band’s own words, the album is, at its heart, “Oklahoma’s specific brand of misery.” A misery intent on taking all down with it and its cacophonous chaos on its own terms as opposed to idly accepting its otherwise assured fall.

It figures that a band with this abrasive, unrelenting, and outlandish of a sound has stuck as strong of a chord as it has. Dread has replaced the American dream, and Chat Pile’s music is a poignant reminder of that shift—a portrait of an American rock band molded by a society defined by its cold and cruel power systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThough very much on-brand with Chat Pile’s signature flavor of cacophonous, sludgy noise rock, the band’s shift to a global thematic focus on Cool World not only compliments the broader experimentations it employs with their songwriting but also how they dissect the album’s core theme of violence. Melded into the band’s twisted foundational sound are traces of other eclectic genre stylings, with examples of gazy, goth-tinged dirges to abrasive yet anthemic alt\/indie-esque hooks and off-kilter metal grooves only scratching the surface of what can be heard in the album’s ten tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBesides stylistically stretching the boundaries of the Chat Pile sound, Cool World is also the band’s first record to have someone else handle mixing duties, with Ben Greenberg (Uniform) capturing and further amplifying the quartet’s unmistakably outsider and folk-art edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile Chat Pile’s debut album was plenty disturbing with its B-movie-inspired interpretation of a “real American horror story”, what the band depicts on Cool World is unsettling not just from its visceral noise rock onslaught, but from depicting how all sorts of atrocities are pretty much standard parts of modern existence. In film terms, think something like a Criterion arthouse film by way of schlocky grindhouse splatterfest: undeniably gratuitous and thrilling in the moment but leaving a looming dread in the back of one’s mind for how close the horrors depicted mirror reality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Season of Mist - North America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53030673350953,"sku":"P-62431-","price":26.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0952\/9219\/5113\/files\/Chat-Pile-Cool-World-LP-62431-1-1737485699.jpg?v=1778063738"},{"product_id":"chat-pile-this-dungeon-earth-remove-your-skin-lp","title":"Chat Pile - This Dungeon Earth \/ Remove Your Skin - LP","description":"","brand":"Season of Mist - North America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53031069450537,"sku":"P-63700-","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0952\/9219\/5113\/files\/Chat-Pile-This-Dungeon-Earth-Remove-Your-Skin-LP-63700-1-1750356798.jpg?v=1778068437"},{"product_id":"chat-pile-this-dungeon-earth-remove-your-skin-lp-colored","title":"Chat Pile - This Dungeon Earth \/ Remove Your Skin - LP COLORED","description":"\u003cp\u003eThroughout parts of the mid-western United States lie towering mounds of the waste residue from early 20th Century lead mining operations.

Crawlspace made the least impression on me at first only to now be my favourite track and one I listened to about twenty times in a row once it sunk its claws into me.
