TRASH Fashion is tipped to be the next best band to come out of Birmingham since Duran Duran – and the four-man group has adopted Limehouse as their London home.

The Trash Fashion story is a colourful one. It may have started in the somewhat less than glamorous city of Birmingham but the band has taken brothers Jet and Mason Storm (vocals/synths and guitar respectively) and drummer Bam Bam, from London to Moscow via pretty much the entirety of Europe and even Texan music-Mecca South By South West (SXSW) music conference in March 2008.

During the past action-packed year, the Brummie lads have thrilled audiences, with salacious mixes of thunderous bass riffs, dive-bomb synths, grinding guitars, and pulsing dance beats and strong pop hooks, literally everywhere.

Along the way there have been brief flirtations with reality TV, celebrity dating and associated paparazzi stalking, a Japan-only mini album on the Vinyl Junkie label, and most recently, a new recruit in the form of bassist Jimbo.

The band has been together for three years, firstly releasing the international club smash It’s A Rave Dave and last October the band’s debut UK album Nights of Error, which was received like musical Marmite from critics who either loved or hated them.

Since then the band has been working hard on the second album. The title track is an inspired bass-heavy, break-beat cover of the Hall and Oates classic, I Can’t Go For That, which is currently causing a real stir on the internet.

The band will release the whole EP track-by-track, for free download from its website www.trashfashion.co.uk leading up to it’s official release on July 27. This track will also be available through iTunes and other online platforms from July 11. The added twist for the band’s fans is a series of videos released to coincide with each track, all inter-linked to tell a short story written by the band, which centres around the band members’ bizarre scrapes.
