Label

Trashcan Darlings were a band from Oslo. They described themselves as the pioneers of Glamour-Punk[1] and a mix of Ramones, Kiss, Sex Pistols and New York Dolls.

Band history

The band was founded by Chris Damien Doll and Strange? Gentle in 1995. Their debut single "I Just Wanna Die (On A Chemical High)" was released in 1999. The same year they signed to a German record label (East Side Records). After that they toured through Germany, France and Austria. Since 2000 they are also playing in Switzerland and the rest of Scandinavia.

In the summer of 2008 the band announced their retirement, after singer Strange? Gentle said he wanted to quit the band due to lack of inspiration. The rest of the band did not want to continue without Strange? and split up. Their last show was in Oslo on December 13, 2008.
