It took a long time, and many of you have been waiting for this new record.

Following the overwhelming success of "Proud like a god" and the tours across Germany, Switzerland and Austria in 1997/98, this record was also gradually released in other European countries, granting us in turn unforgettable moments at gigs and festivals from Finland to Croatia and from Portugal to Hungary. In 1999, we went to the USA for the first time where, after 5 weeks on the road with P.O.D., we actually managed to get a foot in the door in November ’99 and where we will be touring with Creed and Sevendust at the time of the release of this album.

It was in 1998 that we thought about a new record. At that time, however, we really had no ideas at all, and to be quite frank, we were so burned out that we were afraid of never ever getting something together again. So, shortly before X-mas 98, we pulled the emergency brake and took a time off from the business stress by retiring into a country house in Denmark.
Strangely enough, this really worked well, and three days later, we had taped new ideas and developments of already existing ideas on 2 DAT tapes.
But despite all these ideas, we were not yet ready to concentrate on a new album even though we got this idea fixed in our heads which, in the end, resulted in numerous postponed release dates.

Away from the stress, we simply needed time to find a new musical way together. And that’s what we managed to do in 1999; in October, we held the first respectable session for "Don't give me names".
Actively supported by our producer team Fabio Trentini and Wolfgang Stach, by Clemens Matznick as sound engineer, by Artemis Gounaki as vocal coach as well as by a lot of guest musicians, the new album is finally finished. We think that we have taken a big step forward, and we’re extremely satisfied with the result!

Best wishes! Enjoy surfing our web site and listening to the tracks!
