They are said to have gained their record contract by impressing the record company staff drinking outside a liquor store. Their first album \u201cRest in Sleaze\u201d was augmented by a commercial on Swedish TV, but the joy came to a halt as first vocalist Dave Lepard committed suicide in early 2006, and the band declared their end. But in 2007 they re-emerged with new vocalist H. Olliver Twisted (RECKLESS LOVE). He left in 2008 and was replaced by Simon Cruz in 2009. Albeit this commotion the band has released four albums including this one. <\/p>\n<p>This album is a roller coaster. There is bang on sleaze like \u201cCocaine Cowboys\u201d and the potential hit \u201cAnarchy\u201d. The sheer energy would move a freight train. Then there is the blatant eighties style as in \u201cSin City\u201d and the deep lyrics of the rather moving \u201cDamaged Kid\u201d. But the less energetic songs like the depressive \u201cExcited\u201d or the odd Rock\u00b4n\u00b4Roll\/AOR of e.g. \u201cExcited\u201d are in majority. I think CRASHDIET are taking the long road instead of the heedlessness that made them famous in the first place.
