In Hunxe, North Rhine-Westphalia, four young people decide to makemusic under the name CRACK UP. In 1994 they released \"Forsaken Dreams\", a demo that caused a sensation in theGerman and European death metal underground. In 1996 \"Blood Is Life\", the highly praised and much acclaimed fulllength debut, was released, which was followed by 3 more albums and brought the band to the biggest festivalstages in Europe.The nineties. A source of genre formative bands and timeless releases. Both \"Forsaken Dreams\" and \"Blood Is Life\"undoubtedly belong in this category, but are in danger of being forgotten in the wheel of time, also because thenumber of copies was limited and has been out of print for years.Reason enough to reissue the legendary first two releases of the German scene veterans and make them accessibleto listeners in modern times. A remaster was deliberately avoided, because Andy Classen already had 27 years ago afeel for the sound controls and any modernisation would also be to the detriment of the spirit that blew through thescene at the time and which you can almost breathe through the original production - only the artwork was reworkeddue to the lack of original data.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40839931789409,"sku":"4042564229462","price":9.47,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_10635346_1077597.jpg?v=1718187246","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/4042564229462-blood-is-life","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
