trashcan is an experimental five-piece from Atlanta, Georgia. With not much of paper trail on the band’s history, it doesn’t seem like the group has been together too long or at least since March of this year at least. The band has been doing a few shows with Connecticut lo-fi studs Furnsss in recent months, with a few more coming up later this summer.

At the moment, ello is the only recorded output from the band. The raw sludgy track recalls early Sonic Youth with the added brashness and volatility. The band states on their Bandcamp they got shit faced and made this, all in one take. It’s unhinged improvisation is met with sneering harmonics, concise hooks, and propulsive rhythms, all making it feel quite visceral.
