Sh!t Talk Reviews is a group of friends that shit talk each other and help lovers of rock, metal, punk and hardcore music discover present day noise that is actually worth the time to listen to.As a rule, the shit talking is kept between the three jokers doing the reviews and is not directed at the artists who are reviewed. Is this a podcast for the kiddos? Eh, there's some foul language and shots are routinely fired between the hosts, so perhaps not. (On the other hand, the kids these days are probably exposed to worse than these three buffoons, so you be the judge...)Be sure to check out the fellas' website for links to all podcasts and written reviews, team bios and the like. You can even leave them a voicemail eviscerating their performances! https://www.shittalkreviews.comIf you're more of a newer-school social media type, you can find the guys trying to claw their way through the socials seas here:Instagram - https://instagram.com/shittalkreviews?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=Twitter - https://twitter.com/STalkReviewsThreads - https://www.threads.net/@shittalkreviews

    The Barbarians Of California - And Now I'm Just Gnashing My Teeth - Album Review

    At long last, two of the three buffoons that make up Shit Talk Reviews finally sat down to talk about what will be certainly considered one of the best albums of 2024: And Now I'm Just Gnashing My Teeth from new LA based powerhouse The Barbarians Of California. The album smacks of rock, metal, punk, hardcore, thrash and has a few surprises thrown in here and there just to keep us all on our toes.  The band's lineup brings serious pedigree to the table with Eric Stenman on guitar and bass (Tinfed, 35 year studio guru as engineer, producer, mixer and stunt guitarist,) Aaron Bruno (singer of AWOLNATION, Under The Influence Of Giants, Home Town Hero,) Isaac Carpenter (drummer for AWOLNATION, Gosling, Loaded,) and Zach Irons (guitarist for AWOLNATION.) They also brought in Tim McIlrath from Rise Against and Daryl Taberski of Snapcase for guest appearances. While you might immediately assume that with such an AWOLNATION heavy lineup that The Barbarians Of California would be a similar band, you'd be wrong. There are certainly some AWOLNATION seasonings sprinkled on the album, but this record is a definite departure from that. Aaron's vocals are frantic and unhinged while maintaining perfect control, the guitar work by Eric and Zack is groovy, thrashy and pristine and Isaac's drumming is powerful and lays a heavy heartbeat for this new breath that's been pumped into our musical lungs. The band brings serious heavy to this album and it's a fantastically refreshing listen. It covers a bunch of genres, but stays cohesive throughout. It absolutely warrants listening to. You should also check out the interview the Shit Talk guys did with Eric Stenman a few weeks back to get deeper into the band and the album.  Be sure to head over to www.shittalkreviews.com for all the other Shit Talk interviews and reviews. Check out the band's website here: https://www.thebarbariansofcalifornia.com/ #thebarbariansofcalifornia #andnowimjustgnashingmyteeth #metal #rock #punk #thrash #newalbum #ericstenman #aaronbruno #isaaccarpenter #zackirons #guitar #drums #albumreview #shittalkreviews #countrytimelemonade #ford #ludens

With John Bush (Armored Saint, Anthrax) Jason Bittner (Shadows Fall, Overkill) Phil Demmel (Machine Head, Violence) Mike Orlando (Adrenaline Mob, Nocturnal) and Jack Gibson (Exodus) it would have been a trial to release an album that sucked.
