Anyone who has already dealt with the formation around frontman Szivilizs in recent years knows that CHOTZÄ have developed over their previous three albums from an initially rumbly-aggressive black metal band with punk influences (""Plump u Primitiv"", 2014 and 2021) to a technically adept and consistently complex structured band (""Tüüfuswärk"", 2020).Now, a good 4 years after ""Tüüfuswärk"", they are releasing their next piece of puke, which borrows heavily from the song structures of ""Plump u Primitiv"", the re-recorded version of which was also released by Folter Records in 2021.

The album was mixed and mastered at Iguana Studios by Christoph Brandes, who gave the band a thoroughly fitting sound for their latest album.
