    The end result is a shockingly seamless meeting of the two acts, and one that feels greater than the sum of its parts.

    In The Earth Again holds the extremes of their sounds simultaneously. It allows Pedigo to channel his craft into something more sinister and evocative, while Chat Pile indulge in sample and tape manipulation, exploring a tenderness and depth of sincerity surpassing that of previous albums.

    Reflecting on their shared experiences in the rural landscaping of the South Central states, Pedigo helps the band break out beyond the confines of their genre, sawing through the crust to bask in the heat of a molten core.

    Pedigo is often plugged in, his nimble fingerpicking surfing waves of sludge guitar. But there are moments of unlikely beauty too. [Nov 2025, p.31]

    It’s in these songs—softer and sweeter than anything in Chat Pile’s catalog, gloomier and more foreboding than anything in Pedigo’s—that their mutual empathy radiates strongest.

    When a broader framework gets introduced and filled with epics like “Fission_Fusion” and “The Matador,” the genre of In the Earth Again is unquantifiable. Even in discordance and confusion, Pedigo and Chat Pile have nothing but potential to offer.
