Truth Cult – “Walk The Wheel” LP
As with their previous LP, Off Fire (from 2020) the Baltimore band headed to Magpie Cage Studios for the J Robbins experience – a man who perfectly understands how to capture the dynamics of this kind of intense, mid-paced, melodic hardcore. Truth Cult feature ex-members of Give, Protester, Red Death, Post-Pink. And I think it is Give who’s presence can be felt strongest in their style – one that is somewhere between Fire Party/Swiz and Fucked Up/Fiddlehead. Fans of Dischord’s output, especially, should take an interest in Truth Cult (as I listen, I’m also picking up traces of Fugazi and Lungfish). This is great reinvention. And let’s not forget, Give were a very cool band, especially their 7″ EPs.
