LowEndAutomatic Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Is this company still around? They put out some mighty fine releases back in the day... Hasn't been an update on their website in like a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stefan Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 It's been years and so I'll delete this if someone tells me to but I'm pretty sure that part of Crank's problem was that (for some of their releases) they would repress records and never compensate the bands.

dynamitekid Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 well, it looks like the crank records store went offline last week so I guess he isn't living off of it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
