30 years ago, Roxette released their fifth album “Crash! Boom! Bang!”, including a stream of hit singles like “Sleeping In My Car”, the title track, “Fireworks”, “Run To You” and “Vulnerable”.
The album would sell more than five million copies and was followed by their second World Tour, which saw them perform for over a million people, including the second performance ever by an international act in China.
In celebration of this classic album’s 30-year anniversary with a unique special edition: a double album in black and white vinyl with 18 tracks and an 8-page booklet, as well as an 18-track CD version that also includes a bonus CD with 23 demo recordings of songs considered for the album.
Roxette were among the three most played artists on American radio during 1989, 1990 and 1991, and we were on top of the charts all over the world. So, it’s no wonder we felt pretty confident when it was time to record the new album, Per Gessle says.
– Having had that kind of success made us feel that we had a perfect opportunity to stretch out into new directions. To show slightly different sides of what Roxette could be. And I still think “Crash! Boom! Bang” is our best album.
The 30-year anniversary versions of “Crash! Boom! Bang” will be released on December 6. Watch out for the fireworks.
