TRUCK VIOLENCE

(Canada / Southern Lord Recs)
FFO: Chat Pile / Show Me The Body / Young Widdows
Truck Violence (Montréal, QC) is a medley that wails its way through the bitters of modern Western Canadian
hardcore and folk, an honesty and shamelessness in disappointment that is both a comfort and a stern regard.
Starting in 2021 with a move from the prairies of Alberta to Montréal, guitarist-banjoist Paul Lecours and singer-poet
Karsyn Henderson, from sticks to city, have had to adapt whilst maintaining roots and authenticity. Also informed by
punk, shoegaze and sludge, their unique sound is the product of a multiple-project span that saw an array of sonic
changes, including through prior incarnations, No Cru5t and Truck. With the full-length release of Violence (July
5th, 2024 via Mothland), the route is set for the outfit’s crashing ode to their roots and violent betterment to continue
at full speed. Aiming to embrace the catharsis of hardcore, while commemorating their roots in folk and country
music, this debut long-player from the Montréal four-piece is concerned with the all-too-hushed addiction, abuse and
dysfunction in isolated country families. Highly recommended to fans of Show Me the Body, Chat Pile or The Chariot.
