Crystal Breed biography
CRYSTAL BREED are a heavy progressive act from Hannover, Germany, founded in 2008 by Niklas TURMANN (vocals, guitars) and Corvin BAHN (vocals, keyboards). After involvement in several tours with well-known acts (e.g. Uli Jon ROTH, GAMMA RAY) they decided to compose their own songs and soon recruited Michael SCHUGARDT (bass) and Thorsten HARNITZ (drums) to complete the line-up. Their first album ''The Place Unknown'' was released in November 2011 by Listen To Your Heart Records and since March 2012 it has been distributed via SAOL, while the band had several successful concerts throughout big German cities.

The band cite influences from THE BEATLES and PINK FLOYD to more contemporary acts such as PORCUPINE TREE, MUSE and DREAM THEATER, while their sound comes out as a fine mix of art rock and heavy prog, recommended to fans keen on bands such as ENCHANT.
