More dates have been added to Crash Romeo’s upcoming U.S. tour with Tub Ring, Driver Side Impact and School Boy Humor. The trek begins April 13 in Allentown, PA, and concludes May 1 in Nashville, TN.

The New Jersey band is hitting the road in support of their recently released sophomore album, Gave Me The Clap (Trustkill Records). The album was produced by Chris Badami (The Starting Line, The Early November).

Blogcritics.org recently described the disc as, “Sneering, tongue-in-cheek sleaze rock. These guys do it for the laughs, the booze, and the babes. It's smirk rock that you put on and sit back to enjoy…They have the songs and the vibe to go far. In an genre full of wannabes; these guys rise above the heap. Check out the title track and smile."

“Popular,” the first video from Gave Me The Clap, can now be seen on the band’s official website and Myspace page, Trustkill Records’ website and YouTube (see links below). It was recently shot in New Jersey with director Jason Marsden (actor from Full House and Boy Meets World), who can also be seen - in various disguises - throughout the clip.
