Band,
After Alex saw himself forced to discontinue his work with the SCHWITZENDE SCHWEINE due to internal problems with the lead singer Josy J., he began looking for possible candidates for a new project. In August he was invited by Claude Michels to give an interview to the recent developments concerning the SCHWITZENDE SCHWEINE at a local radio station in Medernach. During this interview, Alex announced his decision to continue the project and that he was looking for new band members. Claude himself was very interested in this offer. During a brainstorming concerning the new project, Alex got to know Jerry Faber as well, who proved to be equally as interested in the project as his friend Claude. The name SCHWEINEPEST was unanimously chosen to replace the former band name, yet they all agreed to keep the music more or less in the same vein as before. Alex wanted to do something similar to early Front242. First cut to be recorded was "Todeshunde", to be released on this compilation. Everybody was more than happy with the outcome of that recording and so it was agreed to continue to write and record new material and possibly even play a live debut show in the near future. Used Synthesizers: MINIMOOG, ARP 2600 Used Sequencer: Roland CSQ-100 Used Drum Computer: Roland TR-808
