Crash Midnight is a basic rock band out of Boston,
and they are really solid. They cite influences from Aerosmith to the New York
Dolls, and many others, but I was most reminded of AC/DC and Sammy Hagar. It is
a definite classic rock feel.
So far I have
only found five songs, but these songs can be heard via Youtube, Spotify, and
Reverb Nation, though each of those places only had four, so you will need to
hit more than one. Can't-miss songs "151" and "Welcome to Boston"
are available at each, but only Spotify has "Made For The Money", and
it does not have "Somewhere Yesterday."
On Youtube,
there are two official videos (the other two are more slide shows), and both of
those concentrate on performance. It's hard to imagine the band doing much
else. The music is so straightforward, it feels like trying to obscure the
performance with anything else would be wrong. The one possible exception would
be fast cars heading down open roads. Maybe the reason I thought of Hagar and
AC/DC was "I Can't Drive 55" and "Highway To Hell".
Listening to
this music just feels good, so I recommend it. Tracks are available for
purchase via Amazon and iTunes.
