Formed in 2004, by Brian Fisher (vocals, guitar) and Ryan Holmes (guitar, vocals) longtime musical partners/friends decided to leave the bustling St. Louis, MO music scene and relocate to Atlanta, GA to peruse a new musical direction. After recruiting several Atlanta area musicians, the band formally known as Creve Coeur debuted “Vast and Danger" and caught a regional buzz.
2006 yielded many changes to the band in the form of a new band name that everyone could spell and remember, a more crafted refined band sound, and a new bassist, New Orleans, LA native Melissa Giorgio to the fold.
In 2007, Slow Motion Crash released their self-titled album to positive reviews and toured relentlessly in support opening for notable bands; The Start, Snowden, Forward Russia, and The Birthday Massacre. The material on the new album explores a wide-range of sounds and genre shifting. They infuse precise layering of melodic and discordant guitar riffs, big bottom bass ends, unobtrusive semi-electronic landscapes, and dance-laden drums.
With the latest band member additions of Atlanta natives Joshua Broughton (keys, vocals) and Jason Curtis (drums) firmly in place, the band will continue to craft material that fuses their love of post punk, shoegazer, and electronic music to foster their own unique distinct voice and create an environment where any music fan can harmoniously coexist.

REVIEWS

"Behind the cover is a rumbling noir-wave notebook of dark mysteries."
-Lee Valentine Smith, Georgia Music Magazine
"Sounds that were at one time considered passe are now new again — and actually refreshing."
-Jon Dawson, Performer Magazine
"Incorporating the anxious atmospherics into a sound that invites comparisons to other bands without slavishly imitating any of them."
-Kevin Forest Moreau, Sunday Paper
"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)
"Back to the shade again, just in time to catch Slow Motion Crash…Another jaw dropping moment."
-David Anjo, (Voodoo Festival Reviewer)
