SPEED CRAZY

Jack’s Twin Bar, Gloucester NJ, Saturday Apr 5th!

About Me


Blending the more sinister aspects of 50’s Rockabilly with Hardcore Punk, their sonic slap-bass assualt converts open mouth audiences into rabid fans with each stunning performance.
With two sold out eps a sold out LP, various compilation cuts, and two ep’s currently in international distribution, Speed Crazy’s recorded legacy continues to win critical acclaim, as well as a devoted following in the US and abroad.
No mere "Retro Act" relying on recycled licks and grade B horror cliches, Speed Crazy’s "Noir" approach to Psychobilly paints a harrowing portrait of the world in which they live: hectic and hard edged.
More than a band name, Speed Crazy is a state of mind: The soundtrack of a world on edge; of desparate love poised against hate; of the white-knuckle hysteria on the steering wheel of a mad machine spun hideously out of control.This is the sound of Speed Crazy. Get it... before it gets you.
