About Econoline Crush
The Vancouver-based alternative band Econoline Crush -- vocalist Trevor Hurst, guitarists Robbie Morfitt and Ziggy, drummer Nico Quintal, and bassist Don Binns -- made quite a name for themselves in Canada. They enjoyed major chart success there, and opened Canadian/European tours for the likes of KISS, the Young Gods, Die Krupps, and the Tea Party. The band started when singer Hurst moved to Seattle and answered an ad for a new band in a local music paper. Taking their name from French novelist Euxebe Auxtry's book Jeu de Fountaine (in which econoline crush was a drug that gives the hopeless a sense of optimism), they mixed alternative guitar rock with electronic music. After moving from Seattle to Vancouver, they built a following for themselves with albums such as 1994's Purge and 1996's Affliction. But their greatest success turned out to be The Devil You Know, which went platinum in their homeland. Their fourth album, Brand New History (2001), went for a more dynamic approach in capturing the band's live energy. Guitarist Ziggy -- aka Ziggy Sigmund -- died on March 8, 2022 at the age of 56. ~ Greg Prato
