Kr'uppt

Kr'uppt. Formed in The Inland Empire in 1992 and released their first demo in 92 a pro quality 6 song 40 minute long cassette that got great reviews and a few not so great ones,"die hard metal haters", continued pounding the club scene in all non pay to play gigs. We self financed and released our first full length CD in 94 and began shopping it hard,mostly in Europe and some in the states.During this time we sold approx 350 of the first demo,1500 of the CD and over 1000 T-shirts all on a local basis. We landed a 5 year 3 album with Milestone music entertainment group in Germany in 95/96 and our Debut label release was released in early 97 with outstanding reviews and responce from some of the top magazines and radio stations throughout Europe. Sales of this CD are still unknown as just when everything was starting to snow ball when Milestone announced they were going bankruppt(pun intended).During the period prior to this we made some great accomplishments,such as:Named in the top 10 bands of the year from one of the biggest radio stations in Europe, Headlined The Whiskey, did a 4 week promo tour in Europe,beat out bands such as Testament and Megadeth in points scored for CD in The AArdshook Magazine just to name a few. With the record deal and European tour up in smoke the band took a few year hiatus and reformed in 2000 and moved the band to the Reno NV area. In 2001 a new vocalist was added to our new sound geared more towards marketability and we began writing, recording and playing live and are once again fixed and ready to be a contender.
