Some bands come and go, others leave an impression so strong that even decades later, their songs feel like old friends you've just rediscovered. Crashland are one of those bands. Formed in the mid - 90s and quickly touted by NME as "Britain's best new band," Crashland had everything: killer songs, a compelling live energy, and a frontman in Alex Troup whose melodic instincts and lyrical heart made him one of the most quietly gifted songwriters of his generation.
This release, The Famous Five Session, brings together five never-before-heard demos recorded in 2001 as the band regrouped after their deal with Independiente fell apart, together with the bonus of the four tracks from The Devoted ep, never before released on vinyl. Mastered and released for the first time, the five tracks on Side A represent the "lost chapter" of a band that in another timeline would have been huge.
