Bio:
Heavy rocking band from Geislingen/Steige, founded in 1990.The Heavy Rock band CRIME stands for great, unmistakable riffs and hooks to die for, not least thanks to the new singer Francis Soto (IVORY TOWER, SUBWAY), who wrote all the lyrics for the new CD MASTER OF ILLUSION and is responsible for all the vocal harmonies. Together with the founding members Matze Ehrhardt (guitar), Achim Aubele (bass), Alex P. Meli (drums) and Gunter Kierstein (keyboards), the passionate musicians revive the band. CRIME was founded in the good old 90s and comes from the Swabian town of Geislingen an der Steige.CRIME released two CDs in the 90s, which sold a total of over 5,000 copies. And even in Japan, a loyal fan base was built up. The song “Get Out Of This Jail” was part of the playlist of the famous Rockfabrik Ludwigsburg for years and is still an integral part of many metal parties.Anyone who remembers the first two CRIME CDs HARD TIMES and NO CURE from back then will love the new songs. If you don’t know the classics, you can look forward to rock-hard songs with fine melodies and distinctive vocals. CRIME has used the last two years to write new songs. The top twelve have landed on the new disc MASTER OF ILLUSION! Matthias Fischer’s renowned PROTON Studio, which has already worked with international greats such as MICHAEL SCHENKER and SAMSAS TRAUM, is responsible for the massive sound.The CRIME songs follow a simple formula: Beat & riffs define the groove and create space for catchy melodies and rousing vocals. CRIME has perfected this philosophy and thus ensures unmistakable, unique rock and metal anthems and also songs for the heart. Always celebrated with a lot of passion and craftsmanship. A feast for all friends of groove-oriented heavy rock!
Album:
After making us wait 27 years for their last album, 2022’s Master Of Illusion, many thought that CRIME were just a flash in the pan. However, in 2025, just three years later, the band have proved us wrong with their upcoming new album, ”Cold Air”.CRIME was founded in the good old 90s and hails from the Swabian town of Geislingen an der Steige. They quickly released two CDs, well sold. The band even built up a loyal fan base in Japan. Their song “Get Out Of This Jail” was part of the playlist at Rockfabrik Ludwigsburg for years and is still an integral part of many metal parties today.Fast forward 2525 – following the critical & fan success of Master Of Illusion and shaking off the patina formed during their long break, ”Cold Air”, with its 14 new songs, aims to propel the band into the fast lane and catapult them back into the limelight.Whether hard rocking in the ’80s German style or soft melodic with even AORish touches, CRIME still master the art of creating captivating and catchy songs. Riffs and beats characterize the groove, making room for melodic hooks and gripping vocals. With a lot of passion and expertise, the band still delivers unmistakable rock and metal anthems as well as emotional songs that touch the heart.This a very, very good band, kinda mix of PRETTY MAIDS, BONFIRE, ACCEPT, KARO – you know the sound: polished & clean hard rockin’ stuff.
