Hidden Treasure by Crashdïet
This Hidden Treasure is a tribute to Dave Lepard, the lead singer, guitarist and founder of Crashdïet, who sadly passed away ten years ago today 20th of January. He had a great rock voice and went silent way to early, but we can hear him on the album ”Rest In Sleaze”. A great album that celebrated it’s 10th anniversary last year.
In memory of Dave I choose the song ”Chemical” from the album ”Generation Wild”, 2010, also the first album where we can hear Simon Cruz sing. He was the third singer in Crashdïet and he also sang on Crashdïet’s latest album ”The Savage Playground” 2013, before he left the band in 2015. Simon Cruz replaced Olli Twisted who took over the vocals after Dave, late 2006 - 2008.
This song was released as ”Generation Wild’s” second single and it’s one of my absolute favorite Crashdïet songs. I like the drum intro that actually reminds me of something from Stone Sour, but the song are less metal and more rock. I like the guitar melody that runs through the song, it has a great energy and it’s just one of those songs that you will like and want to hear over and over again. I’d love to hear this song being played live, it would be perfect for that, it’s singalong friendly too so it would be great. This song is in my meaning one of the best songs on the album. I also think this song deserves to be played on the radio.
Thanks Dave for starting one of Swedens best bands. Hope to hear more from Crashdïet soon. Rest in sleaze, Dave.
You can hear ”Chemical” in this mini-player below and you can also get the song on iTunes. For more info about Crashdïet go to their FaceBookpage, website or follow them on twitter.
