Talk About It – Original Vinyl Record Release

Description

British punk trio Grade 2 return swinging with Talk About It, their third and most blisteringly realized album, out on Tim Armstrong’s storied Hellcat Records.

It’s an 11-track surge that fuses classic punk’s bare-knuckle conviction with the disillusionment, identity crises, and quiet rage of Gen-Z—delivered by three Isle of Wight lifers who’ve been sharpening their edge since they first bashed out covers at 14. Jack Chatfield, Ja- cob Hull, and Sid Ryan have spent thirteen years turning raw instinct into a signature roar, and Talk
About It captures them at full velocity.

Their blistering track, “Cut Throat,” distills their ethos: fierce guitars, punishing rhythm, and a narra- tive of clawing forward while the world seems hellbent on pulling you under. “It’s about a world that takes more than it gives,” the band says—and that tension becomes fuel, a rallying cry for anyone navigating a landscape that feels colder by the day. With Talk About It, GRADE 2 don’t just revive punk’s urgency—they embody it.
