Spanish punk rock outfit The Wildthroats hit with their latest single “Garbage Truck,” a snarling, energetic burst of riff-driven punk that captures both grit and melody with unapologetic attitude. Hailing from Spain’s vibrant DIY scene, The Wildthroats have built a reputation for songs that feel fast, raw, and instantly memorable — and this track is no exception.
“Garbage Truck” opens with jagged guitar chords and a rhythm section that refuses to let up, propelling the song forward with momentum you can’t shake. The vocals carry a cheeky sneer, delivering lines that pair sharp lyrical wit with a relentless musical punch. The interplay between melody and aggression feels effortless, keeping the song catchy without sacrificing punch.
You can hear echoes of classic punk roots in the driving tempo and raw energy, but Garbage Truck never feels retro. The Wildthroats shape that influence into something distinctly their own: a blend of urgency and hook that works just as well blasting through headphones as it would ripping through a basement show.
Whether you’re already into European hardcore-tinged punk or just discovering The Wildthroats, “Garbage Truck” stands out as a slug of pure punk rock — loud, fast, and with a grin that says it’s having just as much fun as you are.
