Crush Ballads

 is a spinoff installment of the Monster Ballads series. Unlike the main series, which focuses on arena rock and hair metal bands, this album features ballads performed by teen idols (girl groups, boy bands, etc.) and pop divas, mainly from the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. Like the past Monster Ballads and Monsters of Rock installments, it was released in both single and 2 disc versions, advertised via direct-response marketing. The single disc version (containing 18 songs) was certified platinum by the RIAA in 2016, while the 2 disc version (containing 35 songs) was certified gold that same year.

The album's tagline is "Every idol has their soft side."
