Description
D.O.A. – Talk Minus Action Equals Zero – Cassette
Talk – Action = 0 is an album by the Canadian punk rock band D.O.A. This album was released in 1991 and is a significant addition to D.O.A.’s extensive discography within the punk rock and hardcore punk genres.
D.O.A. is not only Canada’s most important punk band, they’re also one of punk’s most enduring bands. While many of the punk acts that emerged in the late ’70s broke up in the ’80s, D.O.A. was still going strong well into the ’90s.
D.O.A., which stands for “Dead On Arrival,” is known for their high-energy and politically charged punk music. Talk – Action = 0 reflects the band’s commitment to social and political activism, with tracks that often address issues of social justice and activism.
Recorded at Club Soda in D.O.A.’s native Vancouver in 1989, Talk Minus Action Equals Zero is among the albums that demonstrate how exciting and vital the Canadians can be on-stage. The lineup on this cassette consists of singer Joey “Shithead” Keithley, guitarist Chris “Humper” Prohom, bassist Brian Roy Goble, and drummer Jon Card. Together they prove quite riveting on such left-leaning, angrily socio-political rants as “Fuck You,” “General Strike,” “Liar for Hire,” and “Race Riot.” This performance was recorded 11 years after D.O.A.’s formation, and it’s clear that the band softened their blow very little during those years.
The album likely includes songs characterized by fast-paced guitar riffs, aggressive vocals, and lyrics that confront issues such as war, environmentalism, and political corruption. D.O.A.’s music often inspires listeners to take action and make a difference.
Talk – Action = 0 is a recommended listen for fans of punk rock with a message. It embodies the spirit of punk activism and continues to be celebrated for its impact on the punk community and its dedication to addressing important social and political issues through music.
