Punknews is excited to premiere Trashed Ambulance's new LP, Flashes of Competence, in full prior to its official release tomorrow. Featuring twelve songs of snot-punk stylings, the album sticks to the band's roots while upping their gamesmanship in composition and production.
This is the Trashed Ambulance's third release on Thousand Islands Records, following the Dime for Every Time and Instant EPs, and is their first LP since their 2016 self-released debut Blurry Thoughts.
Guitarist/vocalist Josh has this to say about the album:
"Finally! Another full length! Never ones to do things the traditional way, we recorded this over a couple months in 2 different studios in 2 different cities with 80 different beers. The result was 12 greasy tracks that we consider undeniably Trashed! Flashes of Competence is a record any alcoholic punker stuck in the 90's can hang their hats on! We can't wait to forget how these songs go when we come play your town! Stay Trashed!"
Trashed Ambulance will be hitting the road to support the album, and there have been some updates to that tour. You can check out the full stream, and the updated tour info, below. You can also still pick up a copy on pre-order, if you like what you hear.
