Trailer is the first album to be released by the band Ash. It totally differs from their more modern releases such as 'Free All Angels', in that it has the raw energy of three teenagers, rather than the more mellow maturity now present in their music.
The album itself is quite impressive, as it was recorded by the boys of the band whilst they were still in their teens. This can be seen in the recording quality of the album, and perhaps in some of the simplistic aspects of the album, but this far from makes it a bad album. The music can be seen as intense chords with a bit of a punk tinge and great use of power chords, but the solos are still pretty good.
There are, unfortunately, only seven tracks on the album. This can be taken in two ways though, it may not be the greatest value for money, but, it does leave you wanting more and means as it is short, you concentrate heavily on the music while it is there.
The track listing is as follows: Season Jack Names the Planets Intense Thing Uncle Pat Get Out Petrol Obscure Thing
As well as these, there are two interludes, which are supposedly humorous impersonations... but they're really not that funny!!
My favourite track on the album has to be Uncle Pat, as it has a highly memorable melody, with a rather interesting bass line. The lyrics are beautiful, with an excellent guitar solo in the middle that just makes you want to sit and listen. It is definitely one of the quieter tracks on the album. Intense Thing is much more loud and punkish, with Jack Names the Planets falling somewhere in between the two.
All in all, the album is great, with a variety of musical styles, and can appeal to people of a wide musical background. It can certainly be seen to show how Ash have evolved into what they are today.

Finaaly I have found the answer, I have been wondering whether this was an Ash album or from another band called Ash (can't see why there would be another band in the same genre with the same name), I had never heard this mentioned when comparedw ith there new album, I now know whay, thanxs and a nice op aswell :) James
