Trash Talk Live at Dovecoat Records Unofficial Showcase SXSW

And if you’re looking for a musical experience that makes you say, “Holy Crap!” Trash Talk just might be that band. Hailing from Sacremento California, Trash Talk are a four-piece working the classic traditions of hardcore music. The band’s lead singer spent most of the set running through the crowd screaming each track, and while doing so encouraging the crowd to surround him and slam dance. The moshing was intense, at his further urging late in the set, literally expanded into a circle pit from one end of the room to the other. It was aggressive, crazy and exciting. If this band really starts to take off, their stage presence is enough that it could easily provoke a full-scale riot.
