CRASHDÏET

Biography

CRASHDÏET originally formed in Stockholm, Sweden in 2000. Rifts and troubles in the band caused a breakup not long after.

In 2002, half of the band took on new members and the band was reformed.

They slowly built up a fan base with their shows. In 2004 they released their first single. This was followed by more singles, and being featured in TV commercials for mobile phone service provider “Tre”.

In August of 2005 released their debut full-length album “Rest In Sleaze”. The album made the top 10 in Sweden.

The band’s success would be short-lived however. On January 20th of 2006, lead singer Dave Lepard was found dead in his apartment in Uppsala, Sweden. While many rumors about his death were passed around, there’s been no official cause of death released.

After a period following the death, the remaining members announced they were looking for a new singer. For the majority of 2006, the three members were unsure whether they’d change the band name or not.

In late January 2007, the band returned, keeping the name. The new singer H. Olliver Twisted was announced and made his first live performance at the Stockholm “Rest In Sleaze” festival.
