| Kinda hard to get used to at first, but it'll grow on you after a while. I remember the video for Apple Pie and thought it was aweful. I have 4 six hour tapes of Headbangers Ball with no commercials or duplicated videos, and I came across the vid for it again. I kinda like them now. They were a little out of their time zone on the album. I was about 5 years ahead of it's time. Most of the songs are pretty humorous

| A funny band. They played funky metal, the singer was dressed like a clerk. I bought the cassette for three dollars, I only like the first song. This is not my cup of tea, The second release Si o Si que cost just one buck, but I don't want to buy it.

| If Axl Rose was the lead singer for The Red Hot Chili Peppers circa "Mother's Milk" or earlier, it would sound like White Trash. "Apple Pie" and "The Crawl" are irresistable booty-swivelling funk jams but so much of this is goofy and disposable that an investment of any more than about 3 or 4 bucks constitutes a ripoff.

| I, too, bought this CD for the song "Apple Pie" and at the time was kinda let down by the rest of it. This CD came out when the funk metal thing was *HUGE* and that single was an obvious cash-in and somewhat misrepresentative. That's not to say that there aren't some good jams on here. Listening to this CD now I really enjoy. I hear alot of Aerosmith in some of their bluesier moments. Worth checking out.

| Just like every other person here I bought this CD for Apple Pie. This is one of my favorite songs. I love that Funk sounding rock. The other songs where Aaaa...From the sound of Apple Pie I expected the rest of the Cd to be pretty good but I was disappointed.

| Man I'm glad I don't feel alone now. I TOO also bought his album based on hearing "Apple Pie" and was like "What the f#@k...?" upon hearing the rest of the disc. Kinda had that "hipster" alternative "better than thou" musician thing going on that EVERY band was starting to portray at the time. Just download "Apple Pie" and if you spend more than 2 or 3 bucks on this you'll regret it immediately upon listening!!

| Wow I am not going to flame anyone,lol, but in my opinion this is one of the best albums I have ever owned. It is very creative and full of hooks big enough you can hang a house on. If you have only listened to the first track " Apple Pie " you are missing out on what makes this a great album. I am a musician for 22 years now. I am 33 years old and I am a drummer. The melody lines in pretty much every song is so creative. The pop slap/bass and the drum tracks are amazing, not to mention the crea

| I totally agree Tom. This is one of my favorite discs from the 90s. I did get their second album, and it did not last long. Terrible follow up from what I recall. However, again - this album is one of my faves.

| Huh...I'm pretty surprised. Guess many of you must not like funky music... because this cd rocks big time, and the Apple Pie single is far from being the best track over here. To me, "Buzz" and "The Crawl" are the real standouts: besides, there is no real filler on the album. The band was original, all songs have nice hooks, the lyrics are humorous, the players brilliant, the production good. I really can't see anything wrong with this record, definitely one of the best ones from the early '90s.

| I absolutely love this album. It was a huge disappointment to me that this band didn't go on to a more prolific career. Their second album, though similar, is the singer with an entirely new band. There are a couple fantastic songs (St. Moondog, Come Tuesday) but it doesn't touch the first album. The rest of the band went on to form a group called Hash, whose album is completely forgettable and features some pretty horrid vocals.

| I gotta agree with TIM above. This album sucks! Even 'Apple Pie' sucks! I listened to it in a used store and would not even consider dropping $2 for this much less the $3.99 asking price. This coming from a guy who buys hundreds of hard rock/AOR/sleeze/melodic metal CDs every year. If you like this then good for you but warning to the wise: listen before you buy.

| If you are Ethan Collins, I liked your stuff (even if you're not, I still like it), it was a lot different from most of the stuff out there. I still have the CD although I have to admit I haven't listened to it for quite some time. IMHO it's a fun album, doesn't take itself too seriously, and has pretty cool groove.

| Apple Pie was the hook that brought me in back when the video played on MTV, and now I rate this as one of my all-time favorite albums. How can you not dig the funky slap bass in "Buzz," the virtuosic intro and bridge/solo in "Prayer B4 Pizza," the wailin' harmonica on "Backstage Pass," the punchy horns on "Take My Soul," or the catchy guitar grooves on "Crawl?" Alvin's vocals can be admittedly shrill, but once you get used him the tracks really grow on you. An absolute funk-rock classic!

| This album kicks ass. One of my favorites from back in the day. I don't get these clowns slamming this record? The musicianship is stellar. Hook after bloody hook! It's a pretty unique band amongst bands for it's time, that's probably why they never quite made it. The really good one's always get spit out of the machine pretty fast. I'd pick this up if I were a clown like you!

| Guys wtf is wrong with ya'll. This is a huge peice! Though I listen to much heavier music most of the time, i didnt stop listening to this album after i bought it by chance. Its almost flawless, it got all: Funky singer that is very talented and controls his voice very well, great bass player that actually CAN be heard, really good guitarist and not a korny drummer. Plus the horns and thr harmonica add much. My advice get this peice if you have the chance. Very original and keen music! 10!!!!!!!

| The members of the original White Trash (actually the drummer & bass player on the 1st album) went on with a different singer to form Hash. Which in my opinion was a great band. The c.d. is long out of print now but if you can find it buy it.

| This album is unfairly maligned! This is a great party album with fun funky hair metal (oxymoron?). The slap bass and horns are great, they remind me of Extreme. Apple Pie is a fun song and the album is consistently good. A fun bit of trivia: the album cover was illustrated by legendary Mad magazine contributor Jack Davis.

There is no ska at all !! it's just heavy rock funk ...and very soon for the fans, Dave Alvin (the singer) will be back for an interview and more !!

| Still a great album after all these years. While Dan Reed was doing a more funky version of AOR, White Trash were more like a funky version of glam. Of course bands like DRN, Aerosmith, Electric Boys and Extreme all had funk elements, but none of them were quite as funk orientated as these guys. I probably would put most of those guys above White Trash as bands I like, but for my money, if you want a funk oriented rock album, this is the one to go for. Where Dan Reed was more serious, the White Trash lyrics were more humourous and upbeat. Songs like Apple Pie, Buzz, Judge me do and Po White Trash are instantly hookable, catchy party anthems, and if you took the horns etc out, wouldnt have been a million miles away from what a lot of the glam bands of the 80s were doing. I actually bought it back in the day on cassette without actually hearing anything from it, and loved it right from the off.

| What can you say? This is just a fun disc all around. You would think, in 1991, with hair-metal drowning in a sea of its own cheese and unoriginality (as we're constantly being told), a band like White Trash would have been more accepted by people searching for the Next Big Thing. But no, it's just another lost oddity swept up in the death throes of a genre it doesn't even sound like. Take your typical high-pitched glam-metal vocals, roll the distortion back a bit, add in tons of wah-wah, some slap bass, big swingin' beats and a horn section, and a quirky sense of humor, and you get White Trash. It makes you wanna party, even if you're all by yourself. It makes you wana dance, even if you don't dance. It makes you wanna shake yer ass, even if you ain't got one to shake. So while it was released the same time as last-gaspers by Southgang, Hericane Alice and Roxy Blue, White Trash's debut bears little resemblance to those barrel-scrapers.

| Ironically, I think more than a few people on this site don't like this CD for exactly that reason, that it DOESN'T sound like Heavens Edge or, worse, Alias. Standouts are the two singles, "Apple Pie" and "The Crawl," but also "Judge Me Do," "Po' White Trash," "Backstage Pass," "Buzz!" "Party Line," and "Prayer B4 Pizza."

| Another cosmic connection is that South Gang had a track "WHITE TRASH with cash". One man's trash is another's treasure, as I would would put Southgang on top of the 3 bands mentioned above, and definitely NOT barrel-scrapers in the Doghouse basement.That's mixing apples with oranges as this band had elements of jazz,funk blues,and rock so they are hard to pigeonhole (compare to southern rockers)as this band haled from NYC. They definitely where not Head-bangers ball material as Wiki categorizes this band as metal(eyes roll). How many bands of this time period had a brass section or a black guy (besides Living Color)? They where talented but sort of a a niche within a niche as they might have had more success if they mainstreamed their image by ditching the long hair,mohawk, ect. being on the tail end of the hair band glory days, but who knows. White Trash reminds me of another fun & original band not on HH "SCATTERBRAIN - Don't Call Me Dude" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbLhHtaVIO4

| Not to get off-topic, but I admit to liking a few Southgang songs, but I liked 'em a lot better before I'd heard a full album and all its filler. Come on, dude, good musicians, but they were (yes, I'm going to invoke that name again) Firehouse Jr., if not Firehouse III. To each his own.
