Screamy math rock. Excellent
Hailing originally from Santa Fe, NM: Alex Gaziano, John Gee, Kevin Brouse, and Buster Ross are the Kidcrash.
The band currently has three full lengths, New Ruins(2004), Jokes (2007), snacks (2009), and a Demo (2006).
There is a lot of controversy surrounding the deals regarding the bands debut album New Ruins, so the band ask people to download it rather than purchase:
“Please don’t order this cd (New Ruins). After spending more than $10,000 of our own money recording it, Lujo Records continues to try to justify their right to continue to collect 100% of the royalties from mp3 sales, after four years of selling the album on itunes and amazon. At one point we requested a box of cds for a show, they sent them way too late and they didn’t arrive for the show. We never ended up selling them, but according to them we still owe them $400 for those cds and with that included they are still out about $500 recouping their $2000 investment. Reality is, we are still out about $8000, and they are honestly out maybe $200-$300 and have plenty of copies of the cd left. But there is no way for us to know how much they have made off of the sales of our mp3s. We have, on multiple occasions demanded that four years is long enough, and that the mp3s be removed from itunes.
