Trash Classic is the eighth studio album by American rock band Frankie and the Witch Fingers. It was released on June 6, 2025, on Greenway Records.
After Data Doom the band was a 4 piece. But Sizemore said "We were open to the idea of making a record that forced us to be a five piece", with the intention of adding a lot of synthesizers. [1] They then added Jon Madaff back to the band this time on synthesizer instead of drums. [2]
Commenting on the theme of trash in the album Sizemore also said "Healthcare is trash, there's garbage in our practice space, trash on the street — you just want to write about what you're seeing, and it's hard not to talk about it." [3]
The response to Trash Classic has been positive from reviewers. Critics from Album of the Year have given it a composite score of 80/100. [4]
New Noise Magazine in a 4/5-star review said the album's best quality is "its ability to parse through serious concerns regarding the future of society with insanely catchy grooves." [5] In a 4.5/5 bomb review from Louder then War they were compared to OSEES "The band have grounded their new album firmly in John Dwyer's weird fuzz-drenched world, and they are all the better for having done so." [6] They were compared to Devo being "lost in a haunted arcade—Trash Classic is weird, wired, and built to blow minds live" in a 4/5 headphone review by The Fire Note. [7]
They were again compared to OSEES in the Reverb Is For Lovers 7.5/10 review. [8]
