Stockholm, Sweden’s Trash featured vocalist Tony Roy Taylor, guitarists Mike ‘Mojo’ Mocadem and Gene Ball, bassist Pete PJ Jaegerhult, and drummer Rudy ‘Runner’ Fluch. Seemingly inspired by both Hanoi Rocks and AC/DC, the quintet debuted in impressive fashion with 1983’s underground classic ‘Watch Out’, then followed it a couple of years later with the Atlantic Records released, Max Norman-produced ‘Burnin’ Rock’ opus. But, although it led to a U.S. tour in support of Bon Jovi and Keel, and introduced a new rhythm section consisting of Muppet-named bassist Cay Coda and drummer Henrik ‘Hempo Bobo’ Hilden, ‘Burnin’ Rock’ ultimately proved less successful than the big guns now investing in the band expected. Trash actually made it as far as starting the sessions for their proposed third album (to be produced in New York by Eddie Kramer) before suddenly splitting up, but its members went on to enjoy domestic success with numerous Swedish bands in later years. ‘Burnin Rock’ follows the pattern of the first album with its Ac/dc and Whitesnake influences. Just about every song features the hard rockin’ guitar riffs that AC/DC is known for. Trash does add their own unique melodies and great back-up vocals.
