This article pretty much nails my feelings on it. Its like the writers/director saw the fine line between dark & edgy and pure cheese, and decided to cross that line at every point, right from the opening credits.

True Detective's season two premiere, "The Western Book of the Dead," is a ridiculous, ridiculous episode of television.
It's so in love with its own self-seriousness that it forgets to tell a story, and by the midpoint of the episode, it had me rolling with its frequently glowering performances and pointlessly weighty dialogue. I've seen two more episodes that are both better than this one (if only marginally so), but this episode marks a new low point for the franchise. It's dumb, dumb, dumb
