Having previously played together in the band Centsless, New Jersey-based Crash Romeo formed in late 2004 around friends Travis Weber (vocals), Ryan Weber (drums), Steve Anderson (guitar), Li'l Steve Matthews (bass/vocals), and Adam Nordmeyer (keyboards). New Jersey peers and pals BEDlight for blueEYES soon mentioned the exuberant pop-punk band to their record label, Trustkill, and though an obvious change in sound from the label's hardcore-oriented roster, Crash Romeo was an official part of the Trustkill family by November 2005.
