Dave Matthews Band-Crash

Crash is full of songs that felt like I knew them before I heard them. Crash is a lot like Under the Table and Dreaming, but feels like they really tightened the screws and battened down the hatches for this one. The songs seem like they have a lot more purpose and direction, and there isn't a wasted note (okay, there's that one wasted note on "Too Much" but it's so low in the mix you hardly notice it). Crash takes the Dave Matthews Band formula and improves on it slightly. This album takes a slight edge over Under the Table and Dreaming but both of them are associated with my last summer of carefree youth and as such they are both precious albums to me.
