The Untalented

So my favorite punk band in Western Canada deserves some words of praise, and I am going to be the one to give it to them. Straight out of Ile Des Chens Manitoba, this 4 piece will beat you over the head with some ear smashing, near anthmatic, tights as fuck, hardcore punk rock. We have had the pleasure of playing many shows with these cats, and every time its hilariously awesome. The energy these cats exude on stage is sublime, with fat as North Americans bass lines, and ripping guitar riffs, all set to the face smashing expertly timed drum track which remind of me of Minor Threat, if they did drugs and listened to metal. But it is just more than the music that makes the Untalented the real fucking deal. It's politics man. All the members of the band seem to have a grasp about just how insane and rapacious our culture is becoming, and are living examples of collectivist resistance. From their delicious vegan recipes, to their epic pot brownie parties, homegrown organic produce, midnight philosophy sessions, and a sickening ability to play almost every instrument imaginable, the Untalented craft a hard as fuck, relentless sound that is both classically punk, and progressive. I could go on and on but check out their page and see for yourself.

As for Releases??? The Winnipeg Band Co-Op will be Releasing a split 7 inch feat. both the Untalented and The Savants, marking the first official Untalented Release, and the vinyl debut for the Sav's.
