Eyehategod then went through a period of internal disputes, and went on unofficial hiatus as its members scattered again to record and tour with their various side-projects; namely Soilent Green, Corrosion of Conformity and Crowbar. Eventually, in 2000, the band reconvened (again with a new bassist, this time Daniel Nick) to compile their various Take as Needed for Pain and Dopesick era singles, seven inches and split records into one record, Southern Discomfort. During all this activity, Eyehategod found time to compile and release their live album 10 Years of Abuse (and Still Broke) (which was mainly released due to a contractual obligation with Century Media), and record and release yet more split records and 7 inches.

Recorded at Balance Productions, Mandeville, LA (June-July, "the year of our Lord" 2000). Studio album by Eyehategod. Confederacy of Ruined Lives is sludge metal band Eyehategod's fourth album, released on September 19, 2000.

Eyehategod is somewhat hard to dissect when it comes to describing their music. A loose interpretation of it might be Sludge Metal with some Southern Rock thrown into the mix. But in a genre that bends rules and defies labels, anything goes. This band is the absolute epitome of Sludge Metal. In every way shape and form, this is what the genre should be. Dark, heavy, slow, and effective. Once you start the album, it will be difficult to press the pause button. The engaging sound is part of what makes Confederacy Of Ruined Lives such an immense album to tear through. The other instruments on this album are nothing to sneeze at. The drumming is precise and on beat, with varying tempos and techniques throughout the album. Like the songs themselves, the beats are generally slow and heavy, with a few occasional passages of speed that are few and between.
