The Stingrays - My Flash On You (Live at the Palais in Nottingham, UK, 1984)

Nothin' But Trash
23 The Stingrays- My Flash On You

Believe it or not the swingin' sixties didn't just spawn mega-pop groups like the Beatles, Stones and Monkees. The decade of love also gave birth to something far darker and dirtier and arguably much more fun. Yes the sixties were also responsible for producing the seeds of what would eventually become Punk Rock. The legacy of such icons as The Sonics, The 13th Floor Elevators and The Monks lives on today and over the past two decades has produced cult sensations such as Thee Milkshakes, The Prisoners and Kaisers. A filthy hybrid of Bad Taste, Rhythm n Blues, rockabilly, surf sounds and all that is unholy, Trash Punk is one of the most enduring forces in the rock n roll underground.

This film compilation covers nearly twenty years of Garage Punk and Sixties Style rock AKA Trash and showcases some of the legendary characters that have emerged on the scene. Never anything less than inventive Nothin But Trash shows exactly why this debauched tradition survives to this very day. It's bloody good fun. Yeah quality bands that really don't take themselves seriously. From cult heroes The Gun Club and Link Wray to more recent contenders to the thrown Saturn V and Empress of Fur its no frills and big thrills all they way as we visit the seediest venues in the UK and spend time at 2003's Wild Weekend in Benidorm, Spain. So beer-up the fridge, call up your mates, roll up the carpet and get well n truly trashed.
