Love their album “God’s Country.” Their music suits their visual aesthetic really well in that it sounds like a regular guy who has been driven completely insane by the oppressive hellscape he finds himself in
chat pile is a pretty dope name for a death metal band if you understand wtf a chat pile is.
I looked it up and yeah, much more terrifying having piles of dirt that could blow lead onto people than something like 200 Stab Wounds, which sounds brutal but in a less existential way
On the other hand, if you don’t understand what it is, then it sounds more like the next replacement for discord.
Please explain to the non metal heads?
This looks like every nondescript town in the midwest in the middle of nowhere inside the US.
Makes sense that the imperial core would prefer such aesthetic. Can’t have too many “free thinking” people now.
There is an element of the “take photographs on an overcast day to make the commieblocks look evil” approach but the sunny last photo shows nothing can redeem
Uncritical support to turning cold war propaganda techniques around on the imperial core.

I took some great pictures like this recently but unfortunately I can’t post them without doxxing my location. But now I think I’ll go for a drive with my camera this weekend.

It’s lovely to get to see pictures of relatives but you you actually get to see the world through their eyes! That must be amazing!
I’m very much an amateur and not a very experienced one when it comes to photography. I’ve been enjoying shooting so much lately, especially since I’ve been very emotional and I love capturing emotions in pictures.
They’re so great live! Outspokenly pro Palestine too.
I’m going to drop this interview to further reinforce how based they are.
Knowing a band is pro Palestine makes them so much better. One of Fit For An Autopsy’s latest songs literally ends with ‘from the river to the sea’
I’m so happy but also not surprised given the content of their songs. The two fit for an autopsy albums I have are in a pretty regular rotation for when I need caring brutality.
It’s great when a band like that aren’t chuds. I’m trying to figure out if Rivers of Nihil are cool like that or if their songs just get that close to being cool politically by accident.
their songs just get that close to being cool politically by accident
Many such cases 😔
or if their songs just get that close to being cool politically by accident.
Lamb of God was recently evoking this question in me. Ghost shaped people sounds revolutionary to me but that could just as easily be due to listening to the lyrics through my own worldview.
I generally dont care for much stuff that gets popular. Chat Pile fucking rules. Early Swans mixed with Dystopia vibes from what ive heard.
Maybe you could describe it as modern Alice In Chains but for people on meth or fent instead of heroin
If i had ever listened to Alice in Chains I might. Im going off the references I know.
The porta-john really ties that first album cover together.
What if metal band with Midwest Emo aesthetic
knocked loose?
idk if anything they do will ever top their first two eps for me they are unreal
There’s no such thing as hell, it’s just a blasphemy invented by the Romans to help convert pagans to their heretical pseudo-judaistic religion. True followers of Jesus Christ denounce hell and other “Christian” heresies.
Hell is real and we built it. Have you tried walking next to a stroad?
Post industrial midwestern is very brütal
Thanks for sharing comrade, hadn’t heard these guys before and they’re fucking cool
I actually fucking love these pictures and I think the entire country should look like this. Just with more density and pedestrian infrastructure
Love Chat Pile. Im not even the biggest metal guy but God’s Country was my favourite album that year. I love that the band take all their own album photographs too.
“Why” is such a great track, nails that “hot couch guy just found out what homelessness is and does not approve” vibe perfectly.
It has that balance of asking an important question that doesn’t get discussed anywhere but doing it in that dumb guy fashion like you said. You don’t get pop music being that specific when it’s talking about people getting along and whatnot
