Eyes On Us (It’s the Sound of a Drone) – a confrontation with the double edge of modern drones: the surveillance machines that hover over protests to control and intimidate and the armed drones that terrorise civilians in war zones. It’s the sound of paranoia power and danger coming from up above.

Berlin fuzz-punk band Trash Pillow return with RAW a four-track EP that confronts the theme of war from the inside out — politically personally emotionally and absurdly. A project built on distortion memory and lived experience RAW flips the word WAR backwards reclaiming it unmasking it and forcing it into the light.

For bassist Meray the EP’s themes are not abstract. “I come from a war-torn country. These songs are not fiction — they’re memories fears nightmares and echoes.” she says.“ RAW felt like the only honest name. It’s WAR backwards because sometimes the only way to understand something is to flip it and face it again.”

Musically Trash Pillow blend jagged guitars snarling basslines heavy distortion flashes of pop sensibility and poetic grit — a sound that pulls from punk noise and the Berlin underground. It’s frantic tender furious melodic and painfully human. RAW will be released on January 23, 2026 with a release show on 6 February at Wild at Heart (Berlin).

With RAW Trash Pillow don’t just write about war — they dissect it laugh at it cry in it and shout back at it. t is messy loud vulnerable and true. It is war reversed.

Bombs Make Her LOL – based on a true story from Syria’s war, about a father who teaches his 5 year old daughter to laugh every time a bomb explodes nearby — turning terror into a game to shield her from trauma, and exposing the heartbreaking absurdity of survival.

Eyes On Us (It’s the Sound of a Drone) – a confrontation with the double edge of modern drones: the surveillance machines that hover over protests to control and intimidate, and the armed drones that terrorise civilians in war zones. It’s the sound of paranoia, power, and danger coming from up above.

Fellow Traveller – a haunting reflection on the Goebbels children, victims of their parents’ choices during the collapse of the Nazi regime; a reminder that even in the heart of evil, innocent lives are consumed by it.

She’s From A War –the raw, human story of fleeing conflict in search of safety — a safety that isn’t guaranteed. It’s the story of millions who never chose to be born into war, yet must carry its weight across borders.
