The Original Story
A Completely Average Crash
The book that started it all. The events within these pages inspired the name, the sound, and the soul of Average Crash.
📖 From Page to Stage
The incidents documented in this book directly inspired the band's name "Average Crash" and influenced the themes of several songs. What began as a written account of chaos and revelation evolved into the sonic identity you hear today.
How It Came To Be
I wrote "A Completely Average Crash" during a period of intense personal upheaval. It started as fragmented journal entries—moments of clarity amidst the noise, documenting what felt like a spectacular, yet somehow ordinary, collapse of everything I thought was stable.
The title came to me before the band ever existed. It captured that specific feeling of watching something implode in the most mundane, inevitable way possible. Not cinematic. Not extraordinary. Just... average. And crushing.
Why It Matters
This isn't just a backstory—it's the blueprint. The characters, the settings, the specific emotional frequencies described in these chapters became the DNA of our first EP. When you hear certain lyrics, you're hearing direct quotes from these pages.
The book explores the tension between expectation and reality, the quiet tragedies of everyday life, and the strange beauty found in admitting you're not special—you're just another crash in a world full of collisions. That vulnerability became our sound.
I kept it private for years, sharing only with close friends who'd recognize specific references in our music. Now, for those who want to understand the architecture beneath the songs, it's here.
