Trashlight Vision

Trashlight Vision was formed in March 2004. Acey Slade and Roger ‘Rags’ Segal had previously worked together 8 years previously selling Punk & Rock N’ Roll accessories. Before Slade was recruited to the Murderdolls he overcame drug addiction with the help of future Trashlight band mate Steve Harley.

In early 2004 the Murderdolls were put on hold as guitarist Joey Jordison returned to his other band. Acey Slade wasted no time and put the Trashlight Vision wheels into motion. Slade called up his old friends Steve and Rags to form the band Len Thomas the drummer was brought into the band via Segal.

With the line-up complete, the band started playing in New York and Philadelphia incessantly. Word quickly spread about their explosive live show. A UK tour was booked and Trashlight Vision received a four star ratings in a rock media magazine for their London Underworld show. To further facilitate their cause of bringing Trashy Punk/Rock N' Roll to the masses, the band all moved into their rehearsal spot (the Trash Can) where they have a DIY ethic. There, they make their own patches, CD's and T-shirts.

The band have shared the stage with The Wildhearts. Although the band has roots in classic Punk and Rock, they are far from 'Retro'. Trashlight Vision have released two E.P.'s of impressive tracks which sold out quickly at shows. They are planning a full album set for release shortly. In a sea of posers and trend-hoppers Trashlight Vision are one of the only genuine Rock N’ Roll bands to emerge in recent times.
