Take Our The Trash – LP
$10.00
“Reminds me of when I first started to break away from listening to top 40’s music in 1984 when some one gave me a burned cassette of the first Violent Femmes album. It’s got some good punk edges but smart in the way Jonathan Richman is with an original driving sound.” – Tim / Hovercraft Records
“An eclectic and cathartic must have” – Razorcake
“One of the hardest working and most original artists in American DIY” – KPSU Portland
“A nice balance between kooky and cool” – Golden Mixtape
“Magical and bitter-sweet” – Punk Normal Activity
Description
Elements of blues, punk, and folk line the foundation of this rock and roll record. Written by an unemployed workaholic, Take Out The Trash covers the identity struggle between projecting a good image and actually being a kind person. The serious but hopeful lyrics are contrasted by a lighthearted beat, gang vocals, and sometimes a kazoo, banjo, or harmonica. Nate Allen (one half of the zany duo Destroy Nate Allen) is a white man in his 30s taking a stern look in the mirror, acknowledging privilege and pain, and inviting you to Take Out The Trash.
