Cool World
Chat Pile
Where opinions diverge is in scope versus ferocity: some critics applaud the stylistic expansion and emergent melodies that make certain compositions unexpectedly anthemic, while others feel the panoramic reach occasionally softens the pure, nihilistic bite that defined earlier work.
The best song is "I Am Dog Now" because its juggernaut Big Black-infused riffs set the album’s urgent tone.
Below, the reviews unpack how those best songs operate within a record preoccupied with violence, exploitation and the residue of trauma.
Who Loves The Sun
Chat Pile
Chat Pile's Who Loves The Sun lands as a merciless, vividly imaginative record that pushes the band's noise-rock extremes into sharper, occasionally melodic focus.
