Musical Style
Named after a state of constant musical collision, Slow Motion Crash combines big bass distortion bottoms, precise drumming, electronic experimentation and tight, melodic guitar riffs to define their signature sound.
Built on foundations of 80's post punk and new wave, Slow Motion Crash has created an accessible alternative styling. Post-punk was a popular musical movement in the mid to late 1970s following on the heels of the initial Punk rock explosion of the early 1970s The spiky keyboard riff that laces through "5th and Incident," the insistent drums and dissonant guitar clash of "Trail of Tears," the quirky push and pull of "Mirrors & Conflict" — these moments nod to the joys of your older brother's crates of old Love and Rockets and Fugazi records while creating a melancholic tension that rings just as true in the here and now. Fugazi are an American alternative / post-hardcore band that formed in Washington D [1]
Press
"(The members of) Atlanta's Slow Motion Crash have logged some serious time in the shadowy corners of this music, incorporating the anxious atmospherics into a sound that invites comparisons to other bands without slavishly imitating any of them. " - Kevin Forest Moreau, Sunday Paper[2]
"These local boys and girls sure do play some gothically ethereal (or ethereally gothic?) shit. Joy Division and Interpol comparisons are inevitable. Joy Division were an English rock band formed in 1976 in Salford, Greater Manchester. The International Criminal Police Organization, better known by its telegraphic address Interpol is an organization facilitating international police cooperation Thankfully, they do put their heart into it, resulting in some ass-shaking jams and dark lyrics that actually sound convincing. " - Mark Sanders, Creative Loafing (Atlanta)[3]
