About the album
“1st” is often described as a regular single , but since the title is not the name of any song from the “Peep” album (which includes all the songs of the mini-album), it is considered an EP. The mini-album is presented by the compositions “Frog”, “Funky Jam”, “Myself” and “Rakkauslaulu”. All of these songs, with the exception of Rakkauslaulu, were later released on their 1996 debut album Peep. However, it is also available on the national album, titled “Hell of a Collection” (2001).
The EP itself did not occupy any significant places on the charts , but "Funky Jam" was the first song played on the radio. She was also the first song the band shot a video for .
