Trash's third LP backs down from the comparitively pop-oriented feel of its predecessor (Gate) and returns to Trash's primary sound -- fuzzy, abrasive, and energetic rock jams, with shouting vocals and a healthy slop-rock influence. Mihikawa, however, presents this with a more experimentally noisy quality than the band's debut, at times betraying the influence of fellow New Zealanders This Kind of Punishment ("The Difference") -- the record is probably the most artistically ambitious in the band's catalog, and frequently outshines the rest of their work.
The purpose of this blog is to expose you to the unique and unrepeatable New Zealand scene known as "Dunedin Sound" that emerged in New Zealand in the early eighties. This space takes over from wonderful blogs that in their time served to make known to the world some of the most significant bands and records of that period. The present collection is dedicated to all those kiwi bands -many of them already forgotten- who, without knowing it, wrote a very important page in the history of music.
