No Treaty – Sound the Trumpet

No Treaty – Sound the Trumpet

(Resuscitation Records • Deluxe 12” EP • 45 RPM)

I first saw No Treaty live with Meadows, Cleansing of the Temple, and Confessions of a Traitor. I had never heard of them before that night and was blown away. Their energy was powerful, and their sincerity was even stronger. After the show, I saw the vocalist praying with an elderly couple at the merch table. That moment said everything. I bought the CD but wished for a vinyl copy. The first pressing sold out quickly, so when Resuscitation Records announced a second pressing, I ordered it right away.

This deluxe 12-inch release plays at 45 RPM and sounds full and dynamic. The packaging shows care and purpose, including a four-page lyric booklet that feels like part of the message. The cover reads “Come, Lord Jesus, come,” leaving no doubt about who this band represents.

“Trumpet” opens the EP with the shouted call to “sound the trumpet,” and it feels like a live anthem. The mix of clean and harsh vocals hits perfectly. “Monolith” begins with a guttural “Let Your fire fall down” and delivers one of the strongest lines on the album: “I’m determined to preach nothing more than Jesus Christ crucified.” “Pages” reflects on questioning Scripture and faith in a healthy way, showing the vocalist’s range between intensity and melody. “Forget” centers on forgiveness, anchored by the lyric “You don’t treat me according to my iniquities,” and features some of the best breakdowns on the record. “Deep” closes the EP with strong harmonies and skilled guitar work, building from “set me free” to the cry “Holy Spirit, fill me with peace.”

The EP carries the spirit of early Facedown Records but brings their own fresh twist. Mastering by Ryan Leitru (For Today) gives it a clean yet punchy finish. The band thanks Trevor Tyson, who has made a good name for himself in this scene, and that connection feels fitting.

Sound the Trumpet is straight-up hardcore that blends passion, purpose, and faith with skill. Every part of this release shows thought and care. No Treaty is not just making noise; they are making a stand. I can’t wait for the full album.
