ALL HAIL THE KINGS of street rock 'n' roll! Having honed their stunning
sound, this masterful quartet have nailed their in-yer-face yet melodic punk
rock that will grab you by the throat, slap you on the cheek and give a
cheeky grin. With there very infectiously energetic and powerful live show,
these heavily tattooed North Eastern lads are the real deal. And with a new
releases on the horizon, 2010 is set to be the year of Crashed Out. The
amazing journey of Crashed Out dates back to 1995. As 15 and 16 year old
kids, they soon went from punk covers to unleashing their declaration of
intent on independent label-released debut album 'This Is Our Music' in
1996. The point was drilled home with their aptly-titled second album 'Here
Now & Real' in '98. With the addition of Decca Wade on drums, the band
developed a fresh sound that combined the urgency of punk rock with the
musicianship and full-on force of rock, drawing on influences such as AC/DC,
Rancid, Motorhead and The Dickies. Self-releasing their 2001 third album
'Back For More' Crashed Out were rolling on. Touring extensively through the
UK and Europe, the boys looked back with their 'best of' album 'Working
Class Aggression' (including cuts from their first three records and
released on Germany's DSS Records) in 2003, the same year they made a video
for future live favourite 'The Jarrow Song'. 2005 was a breakthrough year
for Crashed Out, with the critically acclaimed fourth album 'Pearls Before
Swine' hitting stores through the highly respected Captain Oi! Records. The
four-piece took their raucous anthems all over the UK and Europe in 2006,
and even headed over the Atlantic with an extensive US West Coast tour.
Impressing American crowds, US label SOS Records released their 'The One And
Only' album in 2007. However, that year also saw Decca leave the band. After
trying out a couple of drummers, Crashed Out solidified their current
line-up early last year with the addition of the Johnny Halling, delivering
"sweat and enthusiasm". Joining banter-loving founding frontman and Viking
Tattoo Studio owner (www.vikingtattoostudio.co.uk) Chris Wright, fellow
tattooist, brother and axeman ace Lee Wright and thundering bass powerhouse
Geordie Brown, Crashed Out are now an unstoppable and focused punk 'n' roll
force, proved by their first live album 'Fast Loose N Live', released in
2008 on their own I Want It Records. Having toured and played alongside punk
legends such as Rancid, The Adicts, The Undertones, The Misfits, The Damned,
The Dead Kennedys, Stiff Little Fingers, The Levellers and many more, the
band's rousing live reputation is hard earned and has to be witnessed at one
of their many upcoming shows. 2009 saw Crashed Out release a split vinyl
single with Spain's Secret Army, and in Sept 2010 the band release their
fifth Album: Crash & Burn on Germanys I hate People Records.
Raise ya glasses, shout out "cheeeaaaz" and sing along loud and proud -
Crashed Out want you to become one of the boys.
