Meet Trashed Ambulance. This three-piece gets to call Alberta, Canada home and has been cranking out punk rock tunes since 2014. Following up on the two EPs they released last year, the band is back with a full-length they called ‘Flashes Of Competence’. It comes with a dozen songs, all of them heavily inspired by all the 90ies Epitaph and Fat Wreck bands. Hell, vocalist Josh even kinda sounds like Fat Mike.

 

So yeah… I think it’s safe to say they won’t be winning any prizes for originality anytime soon. I’m pretty sure they won’t lose too much sleep about it though. They sound like they are having a blast and if you are into the likes of NOFX, Pulley and so on, chances are you will too!

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
