So.. back from a short vacation and ready to deliver a whole lot of hardcorepunkrockmetalsludge once more! First and for all, if you placed an order in the last 2 weeks, thanks for your patience! We will try and get everything out this week! We updated the online-store and got a lot of new stuff in as well as a lot of re-stocks. We will be attending Trash Fest this coming weekend and Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium on June 28 and 29. Come say hi! Alright, let’s stick to the facts...
TRASH TALK debut LP/CD. Pre-orders up now! European Tour w/ Mongoloids June 19-July 6
The perfect unison of Cryptic Slaughter-ish full-speed pre-thrash agitated by the fury and rhythmic tumult of D.R.I. and Discharge. - Exclaim! If last year was the breakout year for Trash Talk then that means that 2008 will be the year that things go ballistic. - Scene Point Blank Good stuff. That's all there is to it... - Aversion Online Picking up where Plagues left off, TRASH TALK 's debut LP (set for release on July 22) delves deeper into the abyss surrounding their last chaotic release. Recorded in just under 2 days at Chicago's Electrical Audio and employing the genius of Steve Albini (Nirvana, The Pixies, Neurosis), TRASH TALK has continued to push the envelope of extreme music. Grinding guitars paired with heavy yet somber bass lines provide the battlefield for harsh dueling vocals to wage war over 12 instant classics. Formed in the fall of 2005, TRASH TALK hit the ground running. Three years of relentless touring, five releases and four vans later, they are still running at the same frantic pace that has established them as one of the hardest working bands today. With live performances deeply rooted in chaos and a track record to match, TRASH TALK is a band to be seen as well as heard. Nomadic, outcast and poised to release their 6th musical attack, and first LP, TRASH TALK is hungry for more. TRASH TALK is coming to your city soon. Bear witness... Trash Talk will be touring with Mongoloids in Europe from June 19 until July 6. Check tourdates on our website for a place near you!

Lou Coller on Sick Of It All changing people's lives: "The best example comes from Holland. We talked to these 2 huge skinhead guys who came up to us with Skrewdriver tattoos and said to us: "If it weren't for bands like you and Agnostic Front, we'd still be fascists".
