The band formed a trio until 1996, when Ákos Dióssy joined as a keyboardist. The main distinctive feature of the band was Kispál's creative and melodic guitar playing style and Lovasi's multi-layered, surreal lyrics. Their music was peculiarly Middle-European, blending the lo-fi indie rock of the West and some features of the Hungarian folk music. They disbanded in 2010. « hide
