In 1997, they released Fucked By Rock - a collection of previously unreleased material, demo versions, and live tracks, and an EP of new material, 13th Floor. Over the next few years Crazyhead made sporadic live appearances. In 1992 they gigged across Europe, and in 1993 embarked on a tour of the UK in order to promote an album of cover versions, Live In Memphis, even though the deal to release it fell through. The band were dropped by Food Records in 1989, and their second album Some Kind Of Fever was released through Revolver Records. Later that year they played at the Namibian Independence Day concert to an audience of 50,000.
