Trash Aesthetics
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Trash Aesthetics is an independent record label founded in 2004 by Rob Fawkes and Claire Hewitson. Based in South London, it specialises in releasing limited-edition runs of singles by both local bands and international acts whose work is difficult to come by in the UK.
TA701 (The label's first release) was a 480 copy 7" clear-vinyl pressing by Bloc Party called She's Hearing Voices which was released to critical acclaim, with BBC Radio One DJ Steve Lamacq labelling the track "genius". This was followed the same year with another limited single called 22 Grand Job, this time by The Rakes which was met with similar enthusiasm in the music press.
2005 saw the release of more limited 7"s by Omaha, Nebraska tap dancing indie troop Tilly and the Wall (signed to Conor Oberst's Team Love label in the US) and Brixton based country / power-pop 5 piece The Tailors. That year also saw the release of a 10" EP by Los Angeles based three-piece Bedtime for Toys who have since gone on to work with Har Mar Superstar and Le Tigre.
