Crush (American band)

Crush were a new wave band with Atlantic Records from 1991 to 1993. Original members included singer-songwriter Michael Bramon, guitarist-songwriter John Valentine Carruthers (formerly of Siouxsie And The Banshees), drummer-songwriter Paul Ferguson (formerly of Killing Joke) and bassist/backing vocalist/songwriter John Micco.

Crush was previously known as Pleasurehead on Island Records from 1990-1991. In 1993, Bramon left Crush shortly before their 1993 release, and was replaced by singer Frederick Schreck whose lead vocals would appear on the record. Bramon went on to work with guitarist-songwriter Tony "Bruno" Rey. Ferguson joined his former drum roadie, Alex Patterson of The Orb.
