After the single "Schlammschlacht" they accepted the invitation to support the Scottish hardcore band The Exploited for two weeks on their Germany winter tour. In the early summer of 1997 another album followed, "Zerreissprobe", and a number of other tours, among others. a. together with Recharge .
