Truck Violence

Truck Violence (Montréal, QC) is a medley that wails its way through the bitters of modern Western Canadianhardcore 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-poetKarsyn Henderson, from sticks to city, have had to adapt whilst maintaining roots and authenticity. Also informed bypunk, shoegaze and sludge, their unique sound is the product of a multiple-project span that saw an array of sonicchanges, including through prior incarnations, No Cru5t and Truck. With the full-length release of Violence (July5th, 2024 via Mothland), the route is set for the outfit’s crashing ode to their roots and violent betterment to continueat full speed. Aiming to embrace the catharsis of hardcore, while commemorating their roots in folk and countrymusic, this debut long-player from the Montréal four-piece is concerned with the all-too-hushed addiction, abuse anddysfunction in isolated country families. Highly recommended to fans of Show Me the Body, Chat Pile or The Chariot.
