CHAT PILE - LIVE AT ROADBURN - Rock

Before Chat Pile took on sold out tours and widespread critical acclaim, they played Roadburn 2023, their biggest show to date, in front of a packed room of 3,000 on the festival's main stage. Fresh off the release of God's Country, the Oklahoma quartet brought their suffocating, sludgy noise rock to Tilburg for their first ever European performance, delivering a set that felt like a milestone. The bleakness, the anguish, the raw absurdity-it all scaled up effortlessly, proving that Chat Pile's chaos could consume any audience, no matter the size.

The set was recorded and later remixed by the band's longtime engineer Jared Stimpfl, capturing the full weight of the performance. The result is something both massive and unrelenting, a document of Chat Pile at a pivotal moment, pushing their sound to it's heaviest and most visceral extremes. "A gut-churning amalgam of molten guitars, pile-driving drums, and agonized howls, Chat Pile's sound is as ugly as their inspiration."-Pitchfork "The bleakness, the anguish, the raw absurdity - it all scaled up effortlessly, proving that Chat Pile's chaos could consume any audience, no matter the size."-Bandcamp
