Truck Violence announce new album ‘The weathervane is my body’

Truck Violence has announced its next full length album. ‘The weathervane is my body’ is scheduled for release on June 26. The Montreal band’s record will be issued by Mothland in Canada and The Flenser for the rest of the world.

The band’s Karsyn Henderson offered a statement framing the album’s intent. “The body is as capricious as ever, felt everywhere and in everyone to varying degrees,” Henderson said. “It is young and reaching for consolation that cannot be found. Shriek some more, says this record, but do so together. Shriek your honesty just as your fellow does unto you.”

The announcement positions the album as a collective, if fraught, expression. “The weathervane moves to every whim of the world, a world of people, things and actions. There is no guiding principle that would calm the mind, and yet it is our duty to cobble something together, an abode and a bed, a long table and an open room swept by many feet. It is how we know beauty.”

This will be the band’s first album since 2022’s ‘The Great Dismal’. The new material continues their fusion of abrasive noise, hardcore intensity, and metallic structure, a sound cultivated within Montreal’s active experimental scene.
