Music to Crash Your Car To: Vol. 1 is the first box set by the American glam metal band Mötley Crüe. Released on November 11, 2003, it contains the band's first four albums in their reissued format (i.e. including the bonus tracks): Too Fast for Love, Shout at the Devil, Theatre of Pain and Girls, Girls, Girls. As an added bonus, the box set features the original mix of Too Fast for Love as released on Leathür Records, as well as an illustrated inlay. Music to Crash Your Car To: Vol. 2 was also released in 2004, containing songs from the group's later years.
The album's title is taken from the lyrics of the song "Crash" by Tommy Lee's band Methods of Mayhem,[4] but music critics such as Adrien Begrand of PopMatters found it to be in poor taste, considering the legal troubles of Vince Neil with regards to his 1984 drunk driving and vehicular manslaughter charge.[2]
