[edit] History

Formed in 2005, Trash Talk soon released a demo on Sell Our Souls Records, as well as a split with Bay Area band Steel Trap in 2006.[7] Later that year, they signed on to Rumble Records to record their debut album Walking Disease. Trash Talk would later sign to Malfunction Records (imprint of Deathwish Inc.) in 2007 for the release of their EP Plagues; which would later form a compilation with Walking Disease.[citation needed] After extensive touring, they would eventually leave Deathwish Inc. to manage their own label, Trash Talk Collective.[8]

In 2008, Trash Talk traveled to Chicago with Steve Albini to work on their full-length album.[9] 2009 saw the release of their single "East of Eden", featuring vocals from Keith Morris of Black Flag/Circle Jerks.[10] After the release of "East of Eden," Trash Talk kept a regular tour schedule and would go overseas.[4][11]

During their touring, Trash Talk participated in a live session for British radio station BBC Radio 1 showcasing songs from their latest album Eyes & Nines, released physically in Europe and digitally throughout on May 17, 2010.[12] The album came out on CD in the United States on June 8, 2010 with the vinyl releasing on June 21, 2010.[13][14][15] Trash Talk performed at the 2011 Soundwave Festival in February/March 2011.[16] Trash Talk were added to the 2011 lineups of Download in June and Hevy Music Festival in August, although they pulled out of Hevy at the eleventh hour.

A new 5 song EP entitled Awake was released October 11th on True Panther Sounds.
