History

The idea for the band came from Gerrit Tijhof (aka KAZZ) in late 1986.[1] In 1987 the band was founded in Enschede by Gerrit Tijhof (1956, Rijssen)[1] and André Romita.[1] By late 1987 the initial line up completed with the addition of Robert Buitink (drums) and Harry Pünt (bass).[2][3] In 1993, Harry Pünt left the band, replaced by Aldo Quattrocchi.[1] Later that year, the band was split up.[1]
