The Cooters "Chaos or Bust"
new compact disc is out now!
released by Profane Existence Records on January 1, 2006

Fresh on the heels of their much more serious epic "Punk Metal," THE COOTERS unleash the animal inside with this digital party on a disc called Chaos or Bust." The first six songs are 100% COOTERS style punk / crust / metal anthems about fucking shit up in the streets, American nationalistic lunacy, personal relationships nightmares, and late-night misadventures. Then are a series of COOTERfied covers of MOTORHEAD, MISFITS and DISCHARGE. The title track Chaos or Bust caps off this immense release, based on the chaos theory or "butterfly effect,"where one tiny event can trigger off the
most powerful of events (such as Hurricane Katrina, which just recently devestated much of THE COOTERS home state of Mississippi). Chaos or Bust was recorded at the famous Easley-McCain Studio in Memphis, TN (Sonic Youth, White Stripes, Iggy Pop, John Spencer, Loretta Lynn, Guided By Voices, etc.), comes with incredible full-color packaging, and is enhanced with a music video for their song Life Like. The Cooters will be playing six Midwest dates with the Sweedish punk band IMPERIAL LEATHER during the New Year's week.

"An energetic disc that will never let listener down, 'Chaos or Bust' should be a buy." -NeuFutur


"COOTERS, THE:
Chaos or Bust: CD
You know how when you’re riding a Greyhound, especially if it’s a really long trip, your standards will lower because you’re so bored, and you’ll talk to pretty much anyone who looks even slightly punk? Like, some dude with a brohawk and a pudding ring gets on the bus, and maybe he has a crimson ghost patch on his jacket or something, so you let him sit next to you in hopes that maybe he’ll offer some interesting conversation, but he actually just talks your ear off about his job as a cable installer, and how if he can just come up with a down payment he can get his own bucket truck and start getting hired on as an independent contractor and not have to deal with his dickhead regional manger anymore; and on every other weekend when his kid doesn’t come to visit, he and his two cousins have a punk rock band, they do a few covers like “Ace of Spades” and a couple Misfits tunes and a Discharge song, but they write their own songs too, they write about how the government’s fucked up and how working sucks and how relationships suck, but they got a couple fun songs too, like—get this—they have a song about Waffle House! Man, that’s crazy, who writes a song about Waffle House? Dude, those guys are nuts. Well anyway, this CD sounds like that guy’s band. –Ben Snakepit (Profane Existance)." -Razorcake
