When you think of some of the premier bands from the last two decades, you can't help but think of the Pacific Northwest. While The Classic Crime claims a musical pedigree harkening back to the legendary Seattle rock acts of the 1990s, the band's distinct musical signature is certain to leave an indelible mark on the present day rock landscape all their own. Assaulting your psyche with a high intensity, guitar-driven rock-riff sound coupled with arresting melodies and lyrics from Matt MacDonald's prophetic mind, The Classic Crime's songs will leave you humming for days on end.

For a new band to produce an album this strong right out of the gate says alot, and that is exactly what Albatross is. The Fight is the perfect lead track, with a guitar hook that grabs ther listener instantly and carries that momentum throughout the song. Warrior Poet, and We All Look Elsewhere continue in this vein, while keeping the screming far from the point of excess. And The Classic Crime displays their multi-dimensional talents by using catchy riffs to carry The Coldest Heart, Bitter Uprising, and All the Memories, while slowing into introspective moments on Headlights and Who Needs Air. This is a complete album from a complete band.

This album is amazing. The Classic Crime has such an incredible sound. They do some pretty sweet stuff with the drums too (especially on The Fight)

Perfect Debut Album| Posted July 23, 2007
This album has everything needed to create the perfect debut album, catchy melodys, awesome guitar riffs and catches the attention of the listener.
I highly recommend this album, it is spectacular, with no 'filler' songs. The highlight of this album for me would have to be "The Coldest Heart", it's got a perfect balance of everything...
