One of the nice things about my job is that I get to post new Chat Pile songs all the damn time. Bassist Stin describes "Same Rules" as "the first real Chat Pile song mostly recorded on 4-track cassette. Ray B. had given us the challenge to write a trip-hop song, and this is what we came up with. Unfortunately, he's rejected 'Same Rules' from the challenge as he claims it's not trip-hop at all, and that we have to try again. The song honestly does sound like Chat Pile trying and failing to make trip-hop, which makes me like it more.
