In 1994, a demo titled "Forsaken Dreams" shook the German and European death metal underground with its intense and raw sound. Two years later, CRACK UP unleashed their highly acclaimed full-length debut "Blood Is Life", which became an instant classic among the metal community. And now, after being long out-of-print, "Blood Is Life" is making a triumphant return with the bonus tracks from "Forsaken Dreams". CRACK UP's "Blood Is Life" is a testament to the band's enduring legacy. While many artists choose to remaster their old works, CRACK UP has decided to preserve the original production from Andy Classen to retain the authentic spirit of the time. Only the artwork has been reworked to make this edition stand out. "Blood Is Life" will be rereleased on 28 April on all common streaming platforms, along with the demo songs as bonus tracks, which will be available for the first time ever. In addition, the album will be available on CD at MDD and selected mail orders, followed by its availability in stores everywhere from 19 May. To get a glimpse of what this reissue has to offer, fans can check out the visualiser for "Unburden" on the MDD YouTube channel. With its crushing riffs, haunting melodies, and unrelenting intensity, "Blood Is Life" promises to be a must-have for any fan of death metal. So mark your calendars and get ready to experience the power of CRACK UP's "Blood Is Life" like never before!
