Canyons "One Man's Trash" LP - random vinyl colors

Kansas City has long been home to a loud, filthy, noise-soaked community. You can find it in the dark corners of hole-in-the-wall slice spots, auto body shops, and grimy punk venues. One long-time staple of this scene is CANYONS, known for its gruff, honest portrayal of its circumstances and the world around it. Canyons has seen countless scenes, DIY houses, and contemporaries come and go, but they’ve lent some treble to each and every one of them.

As a celebration of this determination and resiliency, the band offers a newly re-recorded version of One Man's Trash. This reimagined version of the 2019 cassette/CD-only release presents these songs as intended: louder and meaner than ever. The session was recorded by drummer Sean Rehmer and mixed / mastered by Portland engineer Nate Abner (ILS).

One Man's Trash is the first in a trilogy of 9 track, 20 minute projects that includes Stay Buried (2020, Knife Hits) and the forthcoming Clutter LP (release date TBA). As the band started work on Clutter, they agreed that OMT should first see a proper vinyl release. The original tracks were re-recorded, and a painting of the original cover art by David Watt was commissioned. Dustin White handled the vinyl layout and just like that, this era of Canyons can finally be honored.

One day, your band will no longer be active. Your favorite house show spot will no longer be rented by the same miscreants it once was. But Canyons will remain, as they have for nearly 20 years, with or without you.
