Crude defies the optical cliché. Apparently tough, the 2 musicians (Reinhard Wagner and Michael Lehenauer) are extremely tender on stage. The music gets under your skin and above all the powerful singing immediately convinces. Raspy voice and a lot of emotion in every song. A convincing and professional achievement.
The influences from grunge and rock 'n' roll of the 90s are unmistakable. Crude are not tasteless, barbaric, subtle or even coarse. Rather, they stand for honest music from the corner of grunge and rock 'n' roll with a penchant for time travel. Inspired by 90s bands, they bring exactly this sound into the here and now in their own way. With an earthy, deep voice and well thought-out guitar riffs, Crude take you into her own musical universe. In general, the relationship between the two musicians is very relaxed and thus transports honestly meant music that you rarely find these days.
