來自奧克拉荷馬市的 Sludge Metal 四人組，與大量的有毒物質共存的環境下誕生的非典型金屬猛獸，種種底層的黑暗故事與聲音的重擊是任何人都可以直覺感受的，請小心觸碰。
There is a sick irony to how a country that extols rhetoric of individual freedom, in the same gasp, has no problem commodifying human life as if it were meat to feed the insatiable hunger of capitalism. If this is American nihilism taken to its absolute zenith, then God s Country, the first full length record from Oklahoma City noise rock quartet Chat Pile is the aural embodiment of such a concept.
Having lived alongside the heaps of toxic refuse that the band derives its name from, the fatalism of daily life in the American Midwest permeates throughout the works of Chat Pile, and especially so on its debut LP. 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. This is what the end of the world sounds like.
