The group first gained widespread exposure through their MySpace page. They began playing shows in Los Angeles and other places in and around

they also released independently-made music videos for "The Deloreon" and "Slow Motion".
Both musically and in their appearance, Hyper Crush makes copious references to the decades of the 1950s and 1980s.[4][citation needed] For
example, they have made references to Nintendo, Technicolor, Hypercolor clothing, and Genesis. They even used sounds from Nintendo's Duck Hunt
game to begin the song "The Arcade" and music from The Legend of Zelda to end it." « hide |
