The Crash - It's Contagious

"Dance with me tonight"

After watching The Crash's brilliant video for the even more brilliant song Still Alive on PPG's blog, I realized that I had been introduced to a potential new favorite band. As I listened to more material from the band, I discovered that, even though they've released four albums, there's really only a dozen or so tracks that I really liked. It's kinda disappointing, but not when a handful of those songs are 100% amazing. Their 2003 album Melodrama, in particular, contains the flawless trio of Still Alive, It's Contagious and Flash. All three contain those amazing Van-Halen-Jump-synths that I love so much. If all their songs sounded like these three they probably would be a favorite of mine. As it stands, though, they're definitely in my top three Finnish groups and Still Alive is the best song out of Finland ever.
