After recording a demo, guitarist Dajč and drummer Plass both leave the group. Plass was replaced by the new drummer, T. Brancuzský. After some disagreements in 1995 Peltan L. leaves. The group was renamed to "Dorian Gray". R. Lysý became their new bassist. The new group records one demo. After leaving Brancuzský, the group begins to use a drum machine. In the period 1997-1998 the group recorded two demos. At the end of 1998, the group breaks up and begins to play in Martin Soukup's group XIII. Century.
