''Trailer'' is a Punk influenced Mini-album by the band Ash . The album was released in October , 1994 through Infectious Records . The band considered it a " Trailer " for their debut album proper, and named it accordingly.

The band recorded this album while still teenagers, and the sleeve art features the legend "Guaranteed Real Teenagers", taken from a Porn magazine, to promote this. "Uncle Pat" was featured in a Heineken advert, which helped to raise the profile of the band, both in Ireland and Britain .

Though the name refers to movie trailers, as a visual pun, the cover of the album shows a toppled truck trailer.

An early rare version of this album was released with a bonus John Peel Sessions 7" with the tracks:

1. Silver Surfer

2. Jazz '59
