History & Biography Being formed in 1978 as Teaser, the German band obtained a major
contract after producer Dieter Dierks heard the band's demo. The band's
name was changed in 1980, as to avoid confusion with the Dutch band with the
same name. Little did these guy know that in the future dozens of bands would share various names and not care.
With a domestic release, the band's albums were only made available as an import elsewhere. Following the release of Execution, Pechtold and Pselias would leave the fold. A video was shot for the band depicting the selling of souls in order to get a record deal. It featured many dancers in it. The video was shot at Holloway Sanitarium where Bonnie
Tylers' Total Eclipse Of The Heart was shot and photographer John-Christian Jacques also recorded the event through still photography. The act folded in 1986. Klaus Thiel had left and been replaced by a Joe Schmeink by then. Guitarist Andy Hönig (Faithful Breath) had come and gone as well. Graf and final drummer Martin Werner formed a band called Sign.
The band sounded akin to a more metallic AC/DC.
