Crash! Boom! Bang! is Roxette's fifth studio album, released on 9 April 1994.

Though highly successful in Europe and South America, the album was badly marketed by EMI in the United States. A shorter version of the album was made available a few months earlier, as a special deal at the McDonald's restaurant chain, called Favorites from Crash! Boom! Bang!. The Japanese version includes the track "Almost Unreal", which was taken from the 1993 film Super Mario Bros.. However the song was titled "It's Almost Unreal" for unknown reasons. In the UK a vinyl version of the album was also released, despite CDs taking over as the mainstream format.

"Sleeping in My Car", "Crash! Boom! Bang!", "Fireworks", "Run to You" and "Vulnerable" were released as singles. "Sleeping in My Car" became the duo's final chart success in Australia, quickly debuting at #24, and then slipping down the chart just as quickly.
