Having surprise announced their return after four years away with a standalone February single, legendary Scottish five-piece, Trashcan Sinatras follow up to announce their first album in ten years
Espousing the "less careerist and more careering" definition of a life inside Trashcan Sinatras over the last forty years, the unchanged line up of Reader, Paul Livingston (guitars), John Douglas (guitars), Stephen Douglas (drums) and Davy Hughes (bass) has slowly shaped eleven new songs via writing sessions scattered between mountain cabins, late-night poker sessions and quiet everyday routines. Prior to this year's announcements, the last release from Trashcan Sinatras was the accomplished Lay Of The Land EP in 2022. Celebrating a four-decade journey as a band this year, Trashcan Sinatras' story began in 1986, signing to Go! Discs two years later. Their formation in Irvine on Scotland's west coast. Blew a fresh breeze into observational, literary and frequently romantic British guitar music. Initially supercharged by their 1990 debut album Cake and the standout single Obscurity Knocks, a further five albums followed, including 1993's I've Seen Everything, featuring hit track, Hayfever, and their third record, A Happy Pocket, originally released in 1996 and rediscovered by a new generation in 2023 when it's reissue returned the band to the UK Official Albums Chart.

Shipping, Returns & Cancellations
SHIPPING:
We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.
Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.
RETURNS:
Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.
If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.
Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.
CANCELLATIONS:
Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.
Thank you for your understanding.
