…Trashcan Sinatras in Modern Rock scandal.

I don’t think I could ever class the Trashcans in the modern rock category. Class? Definitely. Modern Rock? Nah.

I’m not sure where to put them, and if their Facebook and MySpace profiles are anything to go by, neither do they.

So how they ended up on this FMQB promo I’m not entirely sure – and what dodgy company they keep too. In amongst ‘Bloodrush’ we have tracks from Butthole Surfers, Ned’s Atomic Dustbin and eh, The Chowderheads.

FMQB stands for Friday Morning Quarterback and is a trade magazine which covers Music and Radio industries in the United States. Based in Cherry Hill, New Jersey it began in 1968 and covers programming, management, music, promotion, marketing, imaging, and airplay for Rock, Modern Rock (Alternative) and Adult Contemporary formats in its 40+ glossy pages.

Rock on guys!

Live Series Radio Sessions Vol.1

Featuring 15 acoustic tracks, this CD of radio session performances was recorded during the 2004-2005 ‘Weightlifting’ world tours.

The CD comes in a simple cardboard sleeve and includes at least one song from each of the band’s 5 studio albums, including two tracks from their recent long player ‘In The Music’.

It originally included two more songs from ‘Cake’, but these were omitted from the final cut. Booooo!
