were formed in 1983 and their first live performance was at Grava, in March of 1984. The same year they signed a contract with Creep Records for their first album, “Lacrimae Christi”. Their sound was dark, melodic and melancholic, influenced by groups like Bauhaus, Joy Division, Stranglers etc. They gave a concert at Rodon with Nick Cave and then toured around Greece, playing at central cities such as Thessaloniki, Korinthos and many more. Their fourth- and last- album was recorded back in 1990 and called “Rajah”. After its release, they stopped all their group activities until the re-union show at Gagarin in 2003.  Of course all of their releases our no longer available by their first labels (Lacrimae Christi and Fell Frozen at Creep Rec / South of no North and Rajah at Wipe Out Rec ) The first three albums were re-edited with some extra songs and rare videos on deluxe limited digipack edition by Dead Scarlet Records. Their last album, “Rajah”, was released again in 2011.
