Five Star Crush has what it takes.&#8221;<br \/>\n-Lazlo &#8211; A.P.D.\/Afternoons, 96.5 FM The Buzz<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So far everyone who has seen Five Star Crush has been completely blown away. In a smaller city that can sometimes seem over-saturated with similar sounding bands Five Star Crush stands out as proof that some people still play music because they love it, and that love comes through in the songs.&#8221;<br \/>\n-Julie, Pipeline Productions<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This Kansas City band released a new EP called <em>Sleepless Nights<\/em> and it&#8217;s nothing short of amazing&#8230;well worth the 5 bucks&#8230; Their lyrics and guitar riffs keep the crowd wanting more&#8230; Five Star Crush, good music and a good attitude and we really dig their indy rock sound (think Strokes only better singing and music).&#8221;<br \/>\n<a title=\" http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/deadendemporia\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/deadendemporia\" target=\"_top\">-The Dead End Newsletter<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Five Star Crush offers catchy melodies, with occasional synths that add flavor in all the right places. Vocals not unlike Robert Smith of The Cure; musically reminiscent of Franz Ferdinand, The Strokes, The Killers, and The Bravery.&#8221;<br \/>\n<a title=\"http:\/\/www.indiepro.com\/2006\/10\/17\/five-\" href=\"http:\/\/www.indiepro.com\/2006\/10\/17\/five-star-crush-sleepless-nights-ep\/\" target=\"_top\">-Indie Productions<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Five Star Crush&#8217;s EP, <em>Sleepless Nights<\/em>, is strategic fodder for up and coming indie bands &#8211; and just about as perfect as you can hear. The four-song collection is just this side of U2 influence to call their sound their own, but close enough to draw enthusiastic comparisons as influencers rather than emulators. It&#8217;s all here &#8211; superb production, mastering, performance, and writing.&#8221;<br \/>\n<a title=\"http:\/\/www.earbuzz.com\" href=\"http:\/\/www.earbuzz.com\" target=\"_top\">-Earbuzz.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0 Kansas City -\u00c2\u00a0Five Star Crush\u00c2\u00a0is bringing rock sounds and dance flourish to an unsuspecting scene; pushing pop ahead, schooled in the classics.
