Album Review: Trash Talk - No Peace

28 May 2014 | 11:16 am | Brendan Telford

No Peace is catharsis through calibrated chaos.


Sacramento hardcore merchants Trash Talk have, on No Peace, reaffirmed where the connection with their label, Tyler, The Creator's Odd Future, lies. At once buoyant and belligerent, aggressive yet ambivalent, the album manages to convey in under half-an-hour the tumultuous energy that lies at the heart of youthful emotion. Everything is to the fore – this is a hardcore album after all – but the abrasiveness is tempered by fevered excitement, funnelled and distilled into a singular serrated tablet to get off your face on. No Peace is catharsis through calibrated chaos.
