1982
Angular, restless, and utterly gripping.
Chalk Circle brought a distinctive edge to the DC post-punk landscape.
“The Slap” captures their intensity — all tension, rhythm, and raw conviction.

Chalk Circle were an American punk rock/post-punk band formed in 1981 in Washington, DC (not to be confused with Canadian band of the same name).
I was so happy to come across this track again, I hadn't heard it in years!
It embodies the raw, angular intensity of early post-punk, driven by a minimalist yet forceful sound.
