Truck Violence hve shared new single “Your name, It’s walking” arrives today alongside a music video directed by Kirill Sommer. The Canadian band’s track is off their forthcoming album The weathervane is my body, their debut LP for The Flenser (Chat Pile, Have A Nice Life), available June 26th.

Truck Violence guitarist and banjoist Paul Lecours and singer-poet Karsyn Henderson navigated the shift from rural life to the city. The two grew up in a small town of 600 people, graduating in a class of nine. By age fifteen they were running a local studio and radio station. There was no industry support, no infrastructure, no template for what they were trying to do, only the work itself and the conviction that it was worth doing. They drew influence from punk, shoegaze, and sludge, and their distinctive sound emerges from years of experimentation across multiple projects, each shaping their evolving sonic identity. Upon their move to Montreal, they were joined by Chris Clegg (bass) and Thomas Hart (percussion) and began building Truck Violence.

The weathervane is my body
track list
The Flenser

My dog would fuck the air
Jaundiced and reaching for a mother
Compelled by Christy
House caught fire
New Jesus
Your name, It’s walking
Stomach as a tower and the globules descending
Gerard, be quiet
Kindly, wash yourself
