Active in 1978 and 1979 only despite the great success of their first album. Due to artistic differences and financial disputes, Nina decided to quit despite being contractually bound to deliver a second album. That album, Unbehagen, was recorded by the band without Nina. She later recorded the vocal tracks individually. Nonetheless, this album too proved to be a big success. After the band split, Nina Hagen carried on solo with backing musicians, and the rest of the band renamed themselves Spliff. Membres: Bernhard Potschka, Herwig Mitteregger, Manfred Praeker, Nina Hagen, Reinhold Heil
