History
Crackdust was founded at the beginning of 2006 by Roth (vocals, electric guitar), S'Bond (bass) and Dlax (drums). The band released the first single Deranged Psychopath the same year. Their debut album, Dented Reality was published in December 2007. Mid-2008, Lee came as the new bassist for the band. The previous bassist S'Bond became the second guitarist of the band.[1]
In early September 2008 Crackdust was the opening band of the Botswana Woodstock. In 2011 they released a second single Return of the Gods.[2]
They are referenced by Andy in season two of Detectorists on BBC.
Style
They're known for the slower tempos of their songs. Stylistically, the songs resemble a mixture of Bolt Thrower and Dan Swanös' slower works.[3] The music of Crackdust has been compared to the works of Cannibal Corpse.[4]
