CHALK – Irish Post-Punk Steamrollers Go Nuclear On Their New Riot-Gun Ripper ‘AFRAID’

Daily electricity to load your batteries

3 February 2025

Band: CHALK
Who: Three earthshaking
misfits from Belfast, Ireland.

Track: AFRAID

A 2nd appetizer from their upcoming, 3rd EP, titled
Conditions III. Check out EP one and two here.

“‘Afraid’ captures the raw fear and exhilaration of stepping into
the unknown, a reminder that growth only happens when you
leave your comfort zone. It’s a reflection on the strength
it takes to move forward.”

TUTV: Despite the fact that I listen about 4/5 hours to new music every
day, I never heard of these Irish steamrollers before, until this new single
suddenly attacked my helpless stereo this past weekend. A roasting riot-gun
ripper.

OMG! Just like that, I discovered this year’s first sensation. Chalk create suffocating
havoc with a maniacal mix of nasty noizz that brings illegal-decibels-producing bands
such as NIN, Metz, and The Jesus Lizard to my cooking mind. They’re armed with scissor guitars, soaring synths and hellish vocals. OMG! Helter fucking bloody skelter. Watch your back Fontaines D.C.
