Crave (Cyclefly album)

Crave is the debut studio album by the Irish alternative rock band Cyclefly. It was released in 1999 on MCA Records. The album features a blend of heavy guitar riffs, electronic elements, and melodic vocals, characteristic of the nu-metal and alternative metal sound prevalent at the time. Key tracks on the album include "Karma Killer" and "Rot". While Crave garnered Cyclefly some initial attention and critical praise for its energy and experimentation, the album did not achieve widespread commercial success. The lyrical themes explored on Crave often delve into topics of disillusionment, inner conflict, and societal critique. Following the release of Crave, Cyclefly toured extensively and released a follow-up album, Generation Sap, before eventually disbanding. Crave remains a notable release in the band's discography and a reflection of the late 1990s alternative rock scene.
