This compilation contains special edits of all 13 tracks from our debut album "The Scapegoat's Agony" (recorded in September 1995) and of all 3 tracks from our second demo tape (February 1995) as well as 3 tracks from our first demo (December 1993).
The album title "The Scapegoat's Agony" is an allusion to the play "Waiting for Godot" by Irish playwright and novelist Samuel Beckett and points towards the – for the most part – painful and excruciating emotional odyssey of the unnamed antihero.
Our musical influences range from Sex Pistols, Ramones, Hüsker Dü, Joy Division, The Cure, The Jesus and Mary Chain to Guns N' Roses, Therapy? and Bad Religion, with our songs frequently straddling the line between punk rock and alternative rock.
Our English lyrics draw on numerous themes and motifs from various authors, such as the existentialist view of the world's utter meaninglessness, as portrayed in Samuel Beckett's plays and novels; the satirical-sarcastic approach to the absurdities of human existence, as employed in Douglas Adams's narratives; the often tragic and – not infrequently – self-inflicted conflicts that countless characters have to suffer through in William Shakespeare's plays; or Arthur Schopenhauer's system of a radical metaphysical pessimism.
