With their sophomore full-length InchGotta Light?Inch, dark rock innovators Crone are cruising in a high octane fuelled hotrod. Channelling their personal musical inspirations that range from ALICE IN CHAINS, via KILLING JOKE, NEW MODEL ARMY, and JOY DIVISION to PINK FLOYD among many others, the Germans leave their very own and personal mark on the genre that has been brought back to the forefront of interest by acts such as GHOST in recent years.

A corresponding element of the mysterious and surreal permeates all of the new songs that revolve around topics such as the hope of receiving signals from the afterlife ('Waiting for Ghosts'), shattered dreams ('Abyss Road'), and a guiding last will ('Gemini').

The well-received debut full-length 'Godspeed' hit the streets in 2018 and it's more focussed and consistent songs got often filed under Inchpost-rockInch. With Crone having been elevated to the main band of each protagonist, the band's renewed focus and urgency is clearly audible on InchGotta Light?Inch. With Christian Schmidt a permanent keyboard player has been added to the line-up that now also features lead guit
