The LP is the second LP on the "[[Schneeball]] 2" label, after the only album of the [[Elastic Rock Band]]. The story of this second Schneeball is unknown, it uses the same label code as the normal Schneeball label.

The band was undiscovered for a long time, probably also because they never appeared in Schneeball-lists, the only hint to the label is on the insert of the LP.  That's why it was only registered as "Not on Label" on Discogs until recently. In the big encyclopedia "The Crack in the Cosmic Egg" the band wasn't mentioned until the most recent version ([http://www.ultimathulerecords.com/crackrom.html Website]).

In the big encyclopedia "The Crack in the Cosmic Egg" the band does not appear so far, in the latest version (2020) they are mentioned briefly after a hint from my side.

They toured until 1985, but there is also a live recording from 1988 on the solo CD of guitarist Martin Wester "Wrobltschek" ([https://youtu.be/msMYy3GRCCY YouTube]). This recording is interesting because it shows that the band has changed a lot, it sounds a lot darker and less funky there.
