Crush Crusher Vinyl
Prepare yourself for a storm of emotion and distortion with Crush Crusher, the bold and beautifully chaotic second album from Ian Sweet, aka Jilian Medford.
Released in 2018, this record is a raw, guitar-driven journey through heartbreak, self-discovery, and healing – with all the fuzz and flair you could hope for.
From the punchy opener “Hiding”, which explores the fear of vulnerability, to the hypnotic rhythms of “Spit”, Ian Sweet blends experimental noise-pop with indie rock in the most cathartic way possible. Tracks like “Bug Museum” and “Ugly/Bored” showcase her signature mix of dissonance and melodic sweetness, pushing sonic boundaries while keeping the emotional core front and center.
Medford recorded Crush Crusher with the help of engineer and producer Gabe Wax (known for working with Deerhunter and War on Drugs), resulting in a more expansive, layered sound than her debut. The guitars are sharper, the lyrics more piercing, and the vibe? Deliciously unfiltered.
If you’re craving an album that’s equal parts vulnerability and volume, Crush Crusher is a noisy little gem. Whether you're screaming along or just soaking in the angst, this one deserves a spin on vinyl - loud, proud, and slightly off-kilter, just how Ian Sweet likes it.
