Led by the bizarre David Stroughter, Detroit's Majesty Crush was one of the smaller shoegazing groups to rise out of the short-lived scene in the early '90s. Stroughter's obsession with tennis-playing women and Kevin Shields made for an interesting mix, while his strong vocals were often the high point of their recordings. Letting Stroughter's charisma give the band a good shot of personality, they still never quite found their audience and eventually broke up. Stroughter went on to form P.S. I Love You, an even weirder outfit that further explored his weird interests. ~ Bradley Torreano, All Music Guide
Just wanted to wish my favorite band a merry xmas and a happy new year! I love you guys! A little throwback from the archives...I think from the last gig.
i just listened to all your cd's over and over while i worked my 10 hour shift tonight. brought back alot of memories from the early 90's seeing you guys in toledo and detroit, and even a high school gymnasium some where in ohio.
Buying a house on the lake for 200K. It has kept me rather busy. Don't think it matters anymore I call you friend. When the dust...you will get your aunt's picture it's safe with me.
