About Me


BUY THE NEW CRUSHED CD "MY MACHINE." CLICK ON THE GREEN BAR!
When you attract one of hard rock’s most respected producers to work on your album, you know you must be onto something musically – especially if it’s Mike Clink (who has worked with Guns N’ Roses, Metallica, Megadeth, and Motley Crue, among countless others). “Crushed is a blend of hard rock with a melodic overtone, similar to a wolf in sheep's clothing,” explains Clink. Mike brought in Fred Archambault to help out with the mix and he took the project to the next level. "Fred added a whole other sonic dimension to My Machine."
Fred himself has worked with some groundbreaking bands such as Avenged Sevenfold and the Deftones. Archambault was impressed with the band. “It has been my favorite record to mix ever. All the elements that are used serve the songs very well and never cloud what Crushed are expressing as songwriters and performers. Mixing the record came together easily because every performance was deliberate and captured to its fullest potential. I can not wait for people to hear this record, Crushed have put their best foot forward.”
On My Machine, Crushed manages to be hard rocking, cinematic, and melodic, all at the same time. Test drive it for yourself.
