The Primitives
The Primitives were a British indie-pop band that gained prominence in the late 1980s with their jangly, melodic sound. Fronted by Tracy Tracy, the band’s most famous hit, “Crash” (1988), became an international success and remains an enduring classic of the era. Their style combined elements of new wave, power pop, and indie rock, creating a fresh, upbeat sound that resonated with audiences.
Though they disbanded in the early 1990s, The Primitives reunited in the late 2000s and continued touring and recording new material. Their later work maintained the charm of their early years, proving their lasting influence on indie and alternative music. "Crash" remains a defining song of the late '80s indie scene, ensuring the band's place in pop history.
