Goodbye Cool World! is the third release by DIY collective Bomb the Music Industry!. It was released on the band's website, as well as on a limited vinyl release. The album's working title was reported to be Clap Your Hands Say Shut the Fuck Up, parodying indie rock band Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, but was changed to the current title because, according to Bomb the Music Industry!, "A band selling 50,000 records without a label, regardless of hype or bad music, is kinda dope."
