Crime in Stereo is a melodic hardcore act from Long Island garnering comparisons to Brand New, Lifetime, Strike Anywhere and Jawbreaker. The band's first official release was a split with fellow New York hardcore stalwarts Kill Your Idols in late 2003 on Blackout! / Brightside Records. The band's debut full-length, Explosives and the Will to Use Them, followed several months later in early 2004. After a signing with the Dexter Holland-owned Nitro Records, the band released the aptly titled The Contract EP in 2005 on Blackout! / Brightside after much delay. A 3-song teaser EP entitled Fuel.Transit.Sleep. was released later that year, preceding the 2006 release of The Troubled Stateside, their first full-length for Nitro. The band signed to Bridge Nine Records the next year and issued their acclaimed third LP, Crime in Stereo Is Dead. A rarities set, Selective Wreckage, followed in 2008. In the summer and fall of 2009, the band returned to producer Mike Sapone's basement studio to track their fourth full-length, I Was Trying to Describe You to Someone, and set it for an early 2010 release.
