In 1984, the band released the best of their early material as a compilation titled "Crawl File", which peaked at number 2. Geffen released "Semantics", internationally, as a long play album with six newly re-recorded tracks compiled from their first two studio albums. Promotion of the album and the subsequent tour was stalled when Guy McDonough died in June of viral pneumonia. Meanwhile, remaining Australian Crawl members had recorded their fourth studio album, "Between a Rock and a Hard Place" which was released in 1985 and achieved number 11. This was followed by the announcement that they would disband after another tour, the live album, "The Final Wave" recorded their last performance on 27 January 1986, which was released in October and peaked at number 16.
