…Record. It’s on Stage and it’s on Film.
Busy, busy, busy eh?
Here’s a small A5 flyer to promote the release of single ‘Twisted & Bent’, a live tour supporting Ian McNabb (see Icicle Works) and their blockbuster movie ‘Spooktime’ – dished out during one of the band’s more productive periods.
Thanks Mr Hartley.
To promote second album ‘I’ve Seen Everything’, Go! Discs thought it would be a good idea to run a series of anagrams.
These appeared in various music press, t-shirts, CD promos and most famously on a fence at the 1993 Phoenix Festival.
It is widely believed the band weren’t too keen on this idea and distanced themselves from what was described as “…an obscene insult masquerading as a marketing ploy…”
Here’s such an ad from Q Magazine…

4-star review from Q Magazine’s Phil Sutcliffe for second album ‘I’ve Seen Everything’.
Surf sound? I don’t think Phil’s ever been to Kilmarnock.

Small A6 promo postcard for the release of the Trashcans’ controversial short film ‘Spooktime’.
This was released in conjunction with the Coen Brothers’ thriller ‘Blood Simple’ and if you produced the card at one of the band’s gigs, you would get two tickets for the price of one.
The Trashcans are such a generous bunch aren’t they.
Thanks to John Hartley again for posting this through.

Here’s a couple of adverts from the Sunday Mail for the Scottish leg of the Trashcans’ 2009 UK tour.
Apparently, they are playing Oran Mor twice this time round (top picture). The 16 Nov date should of course read Aberdeen’s Warehouse.
Proofreaders? Tut tut!
