daniel and I more or less set up our band by the end of 1995. after a rather short guest performance of the mystical jan s., the later icon [r.i.p.] and the jssobb [r.ip.] vocalist, ronny joined us to roar at our by then nonexistent audience. moreover, our second guitar player markus left the band even before god knows who came up with our funky band name. hes now more into house-techno-trance-kinda-stuff. yep, really looks like it aint a lifetime commitment anymore! there were numerous other changes before we arrived at our longtime setup with daniel (1st-strings), michael (2nd strings), andreas (4-strings), ronny (vocals) and myself andre (drums).
during our first couple months, we were put into a little dark hole in our school. since we all left school sooner or later and each put on a little additional weight, we had to move and finally got our own practice room at our local wanna-be youth club, the notorious Juselhalle. there we had tons of parties where the whole interior got torn up, only to be replaced by an even shittier one.
for reasons weve mostly forgotten, we put our 1998 demo tape along with our strings and sticks into a box where it sat at some dusty and moldy attic between 1999 and 2001. after a furious reunion show in 2001 we had to take another break since I was in Canada and in the US for 6 months to breathe in some overseas-air. as soon as I was back in good old Europe, we all put our heads together again in search of even better songs.
our rather short list of past shows is probably mostly due to our lack of dedication to move our hairy asses and contact the outside world in order to get booked. or maybe its just because we suck, which I personally doubt. nevertheless, whenever we were on stage it was for the most part successful, at least for us! wed regard the shows with sheer terror and integrity both in cottbus as our highlights but we also played with heaven shall burn, waterdown, narziß, maroon, born from pain, anodyne, dodewaard and others.
eventually, in march 2004, our lazy keisters made it into a real recording studio where we spent a week to put together our first full length time has come to a standstill. since its release in mid 2004, we split up with ronny and are currently working on new songs together with our new vocalist marius. so we will have a couple of songs ready by the end of the summer and were as sure as shit stinks that well be a fucking blast and youll love us more than ever!
let's say farewell...
