the Boys and Crash - Favourite Amongst Thieves - CD (2010)

Labels: self released
Review by: Thomas Strawbridge

At least these guys acknowledge the source of their name by posing with the Scott Pilgrim books in the photo. Well, Crash and the Boys have a song that renders the whole audience unconscious and I kind of wish that had happened to me instead. This is the kind of band whose shitty tongue in cheek (I assume / hope) fast punk is funny when they’re part of the scene in your town and you see them all the time, but taken in isolation are just unfathomable. On the plus side these guys can actually play their instruments and the songs are on the short side. Down side? 12 tracks….
