that is some of their best guitar work, what a byoot of a song, i've loved this band ever since bingenheimer played them on KROQ in LA in 90. only a tongue can tell and obscurity knocks. oh yeah ! thanks for sharing that

In 30 years the Trashcan Sinatras will be looked back at as todays Velvet Underground, very underated in their time but hugely important and relevant to their fans and contemporaries.
The maybe the best band to come out of Europe period. At the very least the most musically talented, That includes the Cure, The Smiths and all who preceded them
I wanted to post this on the first day of summer, not just because I love this band's music, but because this strikes me as so much a "sit on your front steps and watch the fireflies at sunset" sort of song. Unfortunately, the backing track is apparently a demo version - the CD version is even groovier.
I simply love how a video like this falls through the cracks of attention. But as Joni Mitchell says: "We all need some cracks... that's how the light gets in..."
Do you ever get in a conversation at a party with someone who you know hasnt bought a record in thirty years yet proceeds to tell you about music and think jeez how am I gonna get across to you how brilliant the Trashcan Sinatras are ..its bloody frustrating....
I'm getting tix to see them next month. Little place, less than 1000 seats, for like $18 ea US. That is the best bargain in years. I am hooked on this song. Here is another one of theirs from the past that I'm addicted to: "I'll get them In' off of Happy Pocket album. Perhaps their greatest song ever, and about drinking, which I can support and relate to. Love them, cheers
Beautiful song and yes, almost as good as I'll Get Them In. Another classic of theirs is "Earlies." Can't wait to get the new CD; these guys are brilliant.
Youre joking? I thought they are pros. Are they still the original Scottish guys? Have they emigrated to the States? Im guessing you are from the US as you use the word academy
Still the originals members except for shifting bass players. Think the band members are half US and Scottish based now.
I've been jamming with drummer Stephen in Glasgow recently, he is an amazing musician and a thoroughly nice bloke. The trashcans are disgracefully neglected and underrated in their home country.
Blimey, thats a result jamin, Yes they are underated and Im surprised considering everything else thats been around and got a lot more attention. Wierd situation. Still cant believe one of them teaches English - they should have been able to turn pro band instead !
Even their b-sides are better than most band's singles. I love that they are our own secret, but they should rule the world, enveloping it in their craft.
The only way these guys could suprise me is to release a crap song. They didn't. Great stuff as always. Looks like I'll be buying disc four and savoring it as much as the others. Hurry April!
sitting here in my bedroom feeling sorry for myself (man flu!!) put this on to cheer me up....You've been away too long boys. Far too long. I love you all, damn you!
Fabulous band. Was wary when 'Weightlifting' was released, thinking they'd been away too long and a pale tired album would be the result. However ,that album was just gorgeous. This track also bodes well. Hurry up and release the new one . . .
Another gem from the Trashies ! What is it about you Scottish bands ( Trashcasn Sinatras, Blue Nile, Aztec Camera, Cocteau Twins, Waterboys etc etc etc etc etc )......amazing !
it wasn't possible to get all the guys together for the video. you can get away with just the singer in the video...if you have the singer and one guitar player or another guy it looks kind of stupid.
@legandrydirk - Yes. He is still giving joy to others as he did in his own life. A true artist and sweetheart.
