I've Seen Everything Review by Roch Parisien

For their second album I've Seen Everything, West Scotland's The Trash Can Sinatras pull the blankies up snugly around you before tearing them away to reveal some rather stark-naked underlying truths. "Easy Read" and "Hayfever" start things off all warm and fuzzy, huge melodies set equally to sawing strings and chiming guitars. "Bloodrush" breaks the bed-sit mood with a swirl of frenetic string-bending that would get the most dour, pimply-faced, black-clad youth tapping his toes. But as the 14-track lineup progresses, whimsy gradually gives way to a darker cynicism and sarcasm that pays due tribute to predecessors The Velvet Underground. Tracks like "Killing The Cabinet" and "One At A Time" cut to the bone instrumentally and lyrically, leaving one to scramble quickly back to the closing security blanket of "Earlies."
