Truck Violence - Violence

Wripen and recorded in singer-poet Karsyn Henderson, guitarist-banjoist Paul Lecours and percussionist Ryley Klima’s basement alongside bassist Chris Clegg, then mixed and mastered by longXme collaborator Noah Baxter, this self-produced introductory effort from the Montréal four-piece stylishly amalgamates elements from hardcore, punk, shoegaze, sludge, and folk.
Violence is a brazenly poeXc homage to small town roots, a mashing of modern Western Canadian hardcore and folk. Extensive in scope, this debut full-length by Truck Violence takes the listener through wide-ranging dynamics, from solemn acousXc ballads to wrathful electric anthems. Delly fractured rhythms and breakdowns, complex harmonic entanglements, emphaXc screams of discontent, are met with hopeful, melodic tracks musing about the steady grip of a Xght-knit community.
From somber, deceivingly happy banjo sequences to crashing noise and cries, Violence uses expression as a mirror, looking upon oneself with clarity, aiming to apain a sense of unadulterated truth of the maper. There is liple modern music taking an honest look at the Western Canadian countryside, tackling themes such as addicXon, abuse and dysfuncXon.
Truck Violence’s first album does just that, uniquely capturing this involuted setng through a wide lens to both contextualize and emphasize what it means to be overwhelmed, to feel shame, to struggle with self-destrucXve ways, to thrust oneself into art as an escape.
