Chief Hyena Unveils Blunt, Anti‑Religious Rant “God Damn Cruel” – A Track from What a Lot of Rot!

Liverpool artist channels dystopian angst into a fierce sonic confrontation with faith

Liverpool, UK – July 1, 2025 – Emerging from the grime and grit of the underground, Liverpool’s own Chief Hyena releases the blisteringly confrontational single “God Damn Cruel,” taken from the album What a Lot of Rot! A raw, anti‑religious declaration set against a backdrop of jagged guitars and dystopian atmospherics, the track explores the question: Where is God?

Inspired heavily by The Pixies, Chief Hyena blends quiet tension with explosive release—but “God Damn Cruel” shifts this spirit into corrosive rhetoric, confronting faith with unapologetic fury.

Artist Statement:
“Anti‑Religious Song. Dark dystopian underground alternative music. Where Is GOD? On another ALL BOYS Weekender! AGAIN,” Chief Hyena snarls. “Spawned from debris. Cast by the scrap heap. Formed by the underground. Pinned together by rusty rivets and bandaged by gaffer tape. Mental status CLASSIFIED. Future BROKEN. Hence, the CHIEF is going to grapevine dance, jumble JUJU potions, and shuffle the one card left in his deck as a simple offering of his grace to the ‘Gods behind the eyelids.’ Enjoy or DON’T! Remember, it is ALL Free Will!”

Release Details:

• Title: God Damn Cruel

• Album: What a Lot of Rot!

• Style: Dystopian, underground alternative—dark, gritty, post‑apocalyptic.

• Influences: The Pixies, underground post‑punk, raw DIY aesthetics.
