Psychedelic sorcerer from plumes of smoke
Demands a sacrifice of supernatural toke
Enchanter's hand reveals rare herbs, occult rituals in which to burn
Spells cast, eyes glassed, the warlock's blast
Burn the wizard's wand
Smokey crystal ball reveals the trip
Into and out of the mind, the supernatural rip
Spells cast, eyes glassed, the mage's blast
Burn the wizard's wand
It's creeping into the bloodstream, sinking into your mind
Ego or ego-death
Your psychedelic crimes
Burn the wizard's wand

Imminent Ruage

They will come to you in the costume of your death,
with their eyes blacked out and the blackest breath
No favors, tricks, or trades
Gambled your life away
Now you pray to your god but know he never saves
All we'll be are shadows chasing light and sound
All we'll see are bodies piled on the ground
They will come to you and they never fail
The reaper's hand removes the veil
You're praying for windfall, your last curtain call
The reaper's ship sets sail
All we'll be are shadows chasing light and sound
All we'll see are bodies piled on the ground
Permanent end to the vital process, life
Hand of doom that ever grips the scythe
Imminent ruage
They will come to you
They came to you

Stooge

You're running
You're running for your life
You're running out of time
You're running out of lies, so don't you try
Tell me again how every single friend
Bows to you and looks to you for trends
You're a stooge and you're going to lose
You're running
You run your little race
You keep lying to my face but you're stuck in second place
Your coveted status, your place in the scene
You do what it takes to keep your nose clean
You're a stooge and you're going to lose, stooge

Suffer Fools

This one's for the fakes, ladder climbers and social snakes
No class, tact, or sense of grace
Just a smoke screen, a smiling face
Until at last, fate will release its grip on me and give me to death
Never suffer fools gladly, for ye yourself be wise
Never suffer fools gladly, the smoke screen of lies
Preach with instancy
Preach with authority
Preach it with exhortation
We never asked for this, but you still insist
Thanks for your revelation
Until at last, fate will release its grip on me and give me to death
Never suffer fools gladly, for ye yourself be wise
Never suffer fools gladly, the smoke screen of lies

Green weed, blue speed, nosebleeds and booze
Cold beer, old gear, it's what we use
Crushed pills, brown swill, we've got that too
Now look inside of your head unscrewed
A stinging odor from smoke stained hands
On a quest to drain the life from all of Oakland's bands
The time has come and now your eyes glow red
Coursing through your veins and ripping through your head
Glowing brain
Your vision's blurred and heart rate increased
Tonight's the night you meet the beast

One of the most unsettling albums i have heard in a while. Chat Pile creates a grotesque blend of noise and groove that brings me back everytime.

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!!
