Formed in 1991, Crash are one of the founding fathers of the Korean metal scene. They were one of the first Korean metal bands to be recognised within the international metal scene as well as in their home country. Their sound is generally considered to be thrash metal but there are other influences such as death metal and industrial. Their electic sound has meant that they have been compared to some of metal's most prominent artists such as Sepultura, Fear Factory and Slayer.
