their first album, "immigrants, emigrants and me", was released in 1990, receiving glowing reviews worldwide. the album was produced by ray shulman and sold well in france, japan, the uk and ireland. the band then embarked on a world tour as a supporting act for the mission, taking in more than 30 countries, including japan and north america. the follow-up album, "2 hell with common sense", was released two years later, produced by dave meegan and with a more powerful sound, helped by an additional guitarist, ian olney (ex-cypress, mine!).
