The Classic Crime

What is the Classic Crime? History is filled with heroes that made the ultimate sacrifice and martyrs who died for their cause. Whether their actions were viewed as “criminal” in their day was irrelevant. From those fighting against injustice to those who stood up for the folks who don’t fit in, dying for one’s beliefs or one’s art is the Classic Crime.

“Music has a profound effect on the listener. It even has the power to lift spirits and change lives,” reasons Classic Crime singer Matt MacDonald. “If we can see our music change a life for the better, than we’ve been paid in the kind of way we hope to be.”

The latest album from The Classic Crime, The Silver Cord, showcases their immense talent for songwriting as well as musicianship.

The Classic Crime’s follow-up Acoustic EP: Seattle Sessions threatens to change lives in such a way with the sheer expanse of its scope, conjuring the most brilliant and raw moments while alternately sounding refreshingly original.

The vocals are unique, the lyrics are compelling and the boys’ hearts are all in the right place.

When you think 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 1990’s, 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 McDonald’s prophetic mind, The Classic Crime’s songs will leave you humming for days on end.

This is not just music. This is hope. This is not just a band. This is a mission. This is an attempt to fill the void for a generation feeling detached, overlooked and phenomenally misunderstood. Dig deep and find yourself in the lyrics and vibes as The Classic Crime takes you on a journey through pain and redemption, leaving the searching soul with hope for something better. This is an invitation.
