Lithuanian alternative rock band formed in 1988 by Algis Ramanauskas and Darius Karvelis. Band’s frontman Algis Ramanauskas nowadays is a well-known TV comedian/director/TV producer in Lithuania.

The sound of early tunes best described as Sonic Youth, Pixies, The Jesus and Mary Chain influenced guitar noise mixed with the beats of house music. Today's sounds more sophisticated: one can hear influences of Frank Zappa, ELP, Igor Stravinsky, John McLaughlin, Drum'n'Bass, Scandinavian jazz, Steely Dan.
