This crack intro from Abyss is one of the group's many ranked entries.

The CSDb release matched to this entry (#81077) is actually a crack by Miro Soft Club from Croatia, indicating a catalogue mismatch rather than an Abyss production. Doc Snyder's page documents Abyss as a US group using the abbreviation ABS, with Raster Blaster credited for code and artwork on their first intro.
