NOT YOUR AVERAGE COLLECTIVE
Vomit trash, birthed by six bored 20-something year olds with nothing to do and no resources, are a creative collective based in London/Bournemouth.
In 2017, drunk as fuck sat at a friend’s house at 3am is where it all started. We’d all just come back from a night out, scraping the last of the dizz bag that all 6 of us chipped in for, and someone, I can’t remember who, got a guitar out and started shredding. Next thing we knew we’re all playing instruments and singing until at least 6am. In that moment, that we never knew would be so important, we thought “fuck, this is pretty cool, we should do this all the time.” We all met at college studying Film but those days were behind us now and we were craving the fun we had collaborating together. So, we thought fuck it, lets do this, let’s all get together with the little money we have and fucking make something. Alas, vomit trash was born.
who the fuck are we and where are we going
Everyone always asks where the name vomit trash comes from, and it’s a fucking funny, yet stupid story. Thing is, we didn’t really care for having a name we were just a group of friends who knew what was up. Anyway, it’s Saturday night, we’re on our way out, Jake’s had too much to drink already and throws up all the over the bus and we were all like fuck this is so trashy, there’s vomit everywhere and we were like fuck trash vomit, no vomit trash, that’s so vomit trash and that’s how our name evolved.
MAX PAINTING AT 4AM IN OUR HOUSE, WE ALL LIVE TOGETHER NOW. AFTER A DRUNKEN NIGHT AT THE PUB WE DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO LEAVE OUR HOMETOWN. WE SCRAPED EVERYTHING WE HAD TO GET THIS SHITTY LITTLE FLAT IN BOURNEMOUTH, IT’S BEEN 3 YEARS NOW...
BIRTH OF THE NAME, JAKE THROWING UP ON THE 427. WE NEVER MADE IT OUT THAT NIGHT, WE WERE HOME BY 12.
I DON’T EVEN FUCKING REMEMBER WHERE THIS WAS, BUT LET’S HOPE IT’S STILL THERE REPPING THE CAUSE. 81
The thing is, it was never about money for us, it was about creating something we believed in. We didn’t have any money and in a way we like it that way because that’s what we’re used to, It keeps us grounded and keeps us conscious. Money never equals talent and we’ve always enjoyed being outside of society. We always made something out of nothing, and quite frankly that’s a talent in itself. We were never picky about what we did, we just let creativity take it’s course, whether painting, making films,creating games or playing music it didn’t matter as long as we were having a laugh.
