Artist description Hi, we're the Cracklins. A guitar driven rock band from Atlanta, GA, we find running through our songs threads of influence and inspiration ranging from the fathers of rockandroll of the seventies (such as Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin) to their new-rock children of the nineties (including Smashing Pumpkins, Rage Against the Machine). The sounds that come out of our amps occupy a variety of colors and flavors: lite-happy, quiet-sad, loud-angsty - essentially, the delicate craft of songwriting runs head-first into the spirit of punkrock. Take the chance to listen, because we did this for you.Also, while you're at it,if you listen to and like a song or two of ours, be sure to send us some email, so we can figure out who you are and what's wrong with you.

Artist History Our band formed over spring break of 1996 with big egos and bigger dreams. Since being taken down a bit, we recorded a six song tape in 1997 ('the world as we know it') and a 5 song cd in 1999 ('the cult of the phoenix'), have been crafting our live set, and playing some shows in our area, and becoming increasing cynical. We finished up our third studio effort earlier this year which will soon be circulated under the title "everything will be wonderful". Those songs are at the top our mp3.com page for you to check out. We have a continually growing list of email addresses of people who are interested in occasionally hearing from us about what's going on with the band, and we hope you're interested enough to want to be a part of it. Just email us at the_cracklins@yahoo.com. Or, if you have any comments, we'd love to hear from you.
