A collision of minds with a love for the loud, CRASHFACE boast a unique brand of punk-pop. Fused together with elements of modern metal, glitzy pop and snarling punk, the duo have created an addictively heavy sound. Consisting of Charlie Hinton (vocals) and Otto Balfour-Oatts (bass and production), the band’s bread and butter is their live show. Forming in 2020, the two have already supported the likes of kennyhoopla, Stand Atlantic and Hot Milk, not to mention making their vicious Download debut in 2023, CRASHFACE have established a live reputation of pure fireworks, with an infectiously fun yet emotional showcase. Championed from the get-go, the duo have received massive praise from BBC Radio 1 with the band getting plays from Dan P Carter, Alyx Holcombe, and Jack Saunders, including a ‘New Wave’ feature on the Future Artists show and the band’s track “Lovedoom” being added to Kerrang! Radio’s official Night List. Along with glowing coverage from Metal Hammer and Rock Sound, CRASHFACE continue to make an impact. Focusing on defying genre as they go and further solidifying the CRASHFACE sound brings the duo to EP number 3, “LIFE AND DEATH IN THE WASTELAND”. Spearheaded by a collaboration with WARGASM’s Sam Matlock, “MANIAC” see’s the band cutting away the bullshit and going for the throat. Covering the spectrum of the creative chaos of CRASHFACE, this EP proves to be the band’s best to date, and there are no signs of slowing.
