Big Head Todd And The Monsters - Crimes of Passion (2004)

This Colorado-based trio has built a career on years of solid touring throughout every college town and a strong DIY ethic. CRIMES OF PASSION is Big Head Todd and the Monsters' eighth album. The irresistible combination of catchy, rough-and-tumble rock with powerful themes sees Todd Mohr at the helm, producing the album. The band is at home on the road and this year is no different, with tour dates at home and abroad throughout the year.

Two themes consistently run through CRIMES OF PASSION - a love of rock and roll and the need to tell compelling, human stories. The wide-ranging songwriting has always been seamless because the trio has an intuitive understanding of where the songs are going - they've been a band since their high school days through to their college days at the University of Colorado. The irresistible combination of catchy rough-and-tumble rock paired with dark storytelling made for the platinum-selling success of SISTER SWEETLY and the tradition continues with CRIMES OF PASSION.
