In 1997, they signed a contract with Polydor for the Dehumanizer album, but it turned out that their sound did not match the Polydor sound criteria. After some time, the group began to collaborate with SPV GmbH and performed at the Wave-Gotik-Treffen festival .

Dance or Die is very popular in Central and Northern Europe. The cold techno sound along with the deep voice of vocalist Wagner forms the perfect platform for thematic cyber lyrics about life in the age of machines.
