Even internationally'95er was with the album "No Need To Argue" the breakthrough achieved: The album sold 15 million times, for some time, the Cranberries suddenly the most successful band in the world.

Like zombies after they first wandered through the area. The euphoric critic demanded a third album, so hastily produced, was "To The Faithful Departed" the expectations are a little respect. When the Cranberries then even their world tour due to exhaustion broke, many thought the final collapse.

Dolores O'Riordan had "no desire". In an interview with the magazine Petra gave the singer even admitted that she even was not sure whether she ever wanted to make music again. The worst, as O'Riordan, had been the routine: "Six, seven years is always the same. Album, tour, album, tour. My God, I hated." Eventually her body was no longer mitgespielt. You've suffered from depression: "I had anxiety before every performance." You no longer have to sleep can only cry. They did not stand where they are at the stage angestarrt was. "I'm not like Courtney Love, on every cover drängelt and even opening a beer bottle would go."

It had all started so harmoniously. 1990 in Limerick, Ireland under the name The Cranberry Saw Us "was founded, dedicated to the band from the beginning of the more sensitive version of the rock. But only as a singer Dolores O'Riordan Fourth in the league as the group met, came the unmistakable sound Cranberries. After her song "Linger" in 1993 until the American charts had started the worldwide rise of the Irish.

Even the debut album "Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can not We?" (1994) sold well. After that is "Zombie" and the crisis, but meanwhile, the Cranberries seem to recapture it.
