Crash was the third single from Feeder's critically acclaimed 1997 album "Polythene".
It made #48 in mid August of the same year, giving Feeder their first top 50 hit despite the band still yet to appear on Radio 1's playlist at the time.
The songs video featured the band playing in a scrap heap where dustcarts drop off the litter they collected from peoples homes. On the heap are various disused electrical goods such as a fridge and a television which Grant Nicholas amusingly pulls along as if he's taking it for a walk like you would with a dog, and the band burying the fridge in sand, that has written on it in black ink I DON'T THINK SO, the main lyric in the songs backing vox.
A table is also on the scrap heap which the band drink tea and read the newspaper.
The b-side "Here In The Bubble" was a working title for the "Polythene" album, which leads to many fans wondering if this track would have been on the album if the original title stayed. Also on the single is an acoustic version of the album track "Forgive".

- The radio edit of "Crash" was not the one as on the promo CD's sent to radio stations. There were two different edits on the promos- one that eased up at an earlier place to end, and one that had the first few seconds cut off with the full ending.
- This version of "Swim" is the same one as on the "Swim" mini-album, only that the first few seconds of the song do not fade-in with the fade-out of "Shade", this is cut off the version on this single so there is no fade-in at the beginning.
