Pop Trash is Duran Duran's tenth album, released in 2000. The album marked their first release not under Capitol Records/EMI, with whom they had been signed since 1981. It was also the last to feature the trio of Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes and Warren Cuccurullo. The CD album went out of print in 2001. It was the only album the band released under their new agreement with Hollywood Records. After the album's poor sales, the agreement was terminated, and they would not release an album until 2004's Astronaut.

The album artwork features a rhinestone-encrusted car which belonged to Liberace.

Since July 2008, the album is available for sale digitally through the iTunes Store in the US and Europe, along with Medazzaland.

History

The band left Capitol in 1998 and signed with Hollywood Records, a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. Vocalist and lyricist Le Bon, increasingly unhappy with the band's situation and the departure of bassist John Taylor, was suffering from a severe case of writer's block during the making of this album. In his stead, keyboard player Rhodes and guitarist Cuccurullo took on more of the songwriting than usual, reworking some of their TV Mania material into some of the songs on the album.
