Craneium revisited their iconic track "Ceasing to Exist" in the studio, re-recording it to deliver a fresh, even more powerful version. This song originally ignited their career and established them as a standout name in the stoner/psych scene. The new take amps up the heaviness while making it even catchier and more crushing than the original!
“We wrote Ceasing to Exist when we first started Craneium and the song has followed us ever since. This year marks 15 years of playing together and to celebrate that we wanted to record the track as it has evolved on stage over time. For us Ceasing to Exist captures the core of what Craneium is about – weight and atmosphere, Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath, air and vacuum.
"Ceasing to Exist is the essence of what Craneium is trying to achieve musically: softness and heaviness. At every gig I feel that once the intro starts, I know that I am home and everything is as it should be”
"The first thing I ever wrote for the band was Ceasing to Exist, Martin had the verse and some lyrics. I added the melody. Funny how it has become a staple for our little band. We still enjoy playing it, and people expect us to. We love the response every time."
