Last Crack

Last Crack was somewhat of a curiosity, and not just because their vocalist posed nearly naked on their debut album cover. This was a band intent on doing things their own way, with a musical style that was rooted in accessible metal but veered off in several directions, making them tough to describe or pigeonhole. Two albums came and went, garnering critical praise for their diversity and originality, but the band wasn't really promoted all that well and they never made much headway popularity-wise. A modified lineup recorded some demos and eventually self-released them as the rare RunHeadStartScreaming album, and the band broke up soon afterward. They reunited in late 2002, initially just for the purposes of playing a few gigs, but have since fully reformed, with plans for a new studio album in 2005.
